We also recognize that in rural Colorado, cars and trucks are necessary for business and family life. Even in rural communities, we have good options for reducing petroleum consumption in transportation: walking, biking, using transit and carpools, driving habits that increase mileage and efficiency, and choosing efficient alternative fuel and hybrid vehicles.
Nationwide, transportation accounts for about 40 percent of total use of fossil fuels.

Combining these tactics will help us meet our clean energy goals and support clean energy jobs and business.
