WHAT: The Alliance to Save Energy and 15 diverse
nonprofit, government, and for-profit partners will
launch the Drive $marter Challenge, a national consumer
fuel-efficiency campaign to reduce drivers’ “pain at the
pump” as gasoline prices continue to skyrocket. The
campaign’s effective driving and vehicle maintenance
tips can add up to hundreds of dollars of annual
savings.
The unique, interactive campaign website (www.drivesmarterchallenge.org)
is the only one with a calculator showing visitors how
much money, gas, and CO2 they can save with their own
vehicle by taking specific fuel-efficiency steps.
The website will go live and can be viewed starting May
14. B-roll can be provided to TV.
