How To Boost Your Fuel Efficiency : We're regularly being reminded of the impact our lifestyle have on the environment. Being environmentally-friendly can also wind up saving you money.
如何提高燃料效率：常常有人提醒我们要注意我们的生活方式对环境所造成的影响。而反过来，环保也能为我们省钱。
Step 1: Improve your fuel economy, lower your CO2 emissions
1.提高燃料利用率，减少二氧化碳排放量。
There are a number of things you can do to make sure you're getting the highest number of miles out of your tank of petrol, while simultaneously lowering your emissions:
有很多方法都可以让你的燃料利用率达到最高，同时也能实现减排：
* Keep your tyres properly inflated – if they're deflated at all your car will find it harder to move, and as such will use more petrol in an effort to maintain speed. If one of your tyres is under-inflated by just two pounds per square inch, fuel consumption goes up by 1%.
轮胎的气要打足-如果一点儿都不充气，你的车动起来会很难，而如果这时还想保持一定的速度，那就会多耗油了。如果轮胎少冲2磅/平方英寸的气，耗油量就会上升百分之一。
* Change the oil regularly to keep the engine ticking over at full efficiency.
定期换机油，让发动机全效率运行。
* Don't cart a boot full of heavy stuff around unnecessarily – it's dragging you down and costing you money.
不要在不必要的情况下载着一车的重货跑-这样会给你的车造成很大的阻力，会更耗油。
* Turn off the AirCon: it puts extra strain on the engine, which consequently guzzles more petrol.
关掉空调：它会给引擎造成额外的压力，很费油。
* Close the windows: it reduces the inherent aerodynamic sleekness of your car, and can lead to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.
关上车窗：这能增强汽车的流线性，降低空气阻力，可以提高百分之十的燃料利用率。
* Keeping your speed constant over long distances uses less petrol, so don't stop and start. Allow your speed to creep up – revving the engine and causing the car to accelerate quickly is wasteful, as is speeding up to traffic lights and having to stop.
跑长途时匀速驾驶能省油，不要开开停停的。加速要缓-当高速行驶时遇到红灯需要停车时，过快加速会造成浪费。
* Move up a gear as soon as possible – if traffic conditions allow, slip into a higher gear. You're at your most eco-friendly between 40 and 60 miles per hour.
尽快抬高车档-如果交通状况允许的话，把车档抬高。车速达到每小时40到60英里时最为环保。
* Don't leave the engine to warm up in winter; you're burning petrol unnecessarily.
冬天的时候，不要让引擎空转，这是在不必要地费油。
* Car share- split a journey with someone else – that's one less car on the road, ruining things.
和别人同乘一辆车-这样，路上就能减少一辆能够对环境造成污染的车了。
