A comparison between people peeing on the planet and engine idling is made in a new humorous commercial from Idle Free Calgary.
“When we idle our vehicles, we are basically saying piss on the planet,” explains the advert.
Avoiding unnecessary engine idling is something that we can all immediately do to minimize our contribution to greenhouse gases. Vehicle emissions greatly contribute to the pollutants that cause greenhouse gases — the gases responsible for the climatic warming we are experiencing on Earth.
If every driver of a light-duty vehicle in Canada avoided idling for just five minutes a day, we would prevent more than 1.6 million tons of CO2 from entering the atmosphere each year, according to Natural Resources Canada.
