Create idle free zones at Andover schools!

Create idle free zones at Andover schools!

The Issue

We release millions of pounds of Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere each year. But what can we do to stop all this? There are many different things an individual person can do. In our school alone, if we can introduce a "no idling zone " we can cut car emissions. Not only will these policies benefit the environment greatly, but idling harms the car itself. Idling damages parts of the car like the exhaust system and spark plugs and idling wastes 6 billion gallons of fuel each year also. If we can implement these "no idling zones" then we can make the change we want.
