Top of PageWhat can I do to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions?
All Canadians need to get involved in reducing emissions of greenhouse gases that cause climate change, as well as air pollution. Here are some things that you can do: • Make use of the Government’s public transit tax credit and increase your use of public transit to help reduce traffic congestion and air pollution in our cities, and greenhouse gas emissions that impact on our climate. • Consult the ecoENERGY for Personal Vehicles program to help you choose more eco-friendly vehicles. • Take advantage of the ecoENERGY Retrofit program to help Canadians retrofit their homes, buildings and industrial processes. • Support green business and encourage other businesses to switch to environmentally friendly practices. • Purchase energy efficient products and vehicles and alternative fuels such as ethanol and biodiesel.
