July 2, 2002 -- The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department Of Transportation (DOT) have launched a new web site where state, local and other organizations can access tools and guidance for developing outreach programs that address transportation and air quality issues.
The new site and materials are part of "It All Adds Up to Cleaner Air," a collaboration between EPA and DOT that provides information to show local citizens how to improve air quality and reduce traffic congestion.
The web site highlights regular car maintenance and emphasizes combining errands into one trip and transit alternatives that can help the air, save time and money, and reduce traffic congestion.
Several areas, including New York City, Madison, Wis., Sacramento, Calif., have already successfully adopted and integrated messages from the It All Adds Up to Cleaner Air initiative into their transportation and air quality outreach campaigns.
In addition to providing effective outreach tools and resources, the program offers opportunities for networking and guidance on building local and regional coalitions.
