The Problem

Pump 'em Up seeks to educate drivers that properly inflated tires would reduce gas consumption by as much as 5%, thereby reducing emissions, improving air quality, conserving gas and reducing the harmful effects adding to Global Warming. Go to www.pumpemup.org for information on how you can host a Pump 'em Up event in your own community.

Why It's Important

If we all do the little things, like properly inflating our tires, together we can make HUGE difference.

The Plan Of Action

Americans waste millions of gallons of gas EVERY DAY just by driving on underinflated tires. Conservation can go a long way to helping with our energy crisis. It's easy, it's cheap and we can start TODAY!

We are getting ready for our biggest event of the year! The "Before You Go" Pump 'em Up campaigns has kids all over the country encouraging drivers to properly inflate their tires before heading out on the most highly traveled holiday of the year...

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
