contributions.\u00a0 A number of \u201chybrid\u201d gasoline powered vehicles are currently available, and these vehicles get significantly higher mileage than conventional vehicles.\u00a0 One example is the 2002 Honda Insight, which has a combined (average of city and highway) fuel efficiency of 64 MPG.\u00a0 In the first part of the\u00a0<em>What You Can Do to Reduce Emissions<\/em>\u00a0section, enter the appropriate value to increase your current vehicle\u2019s mileage to 64 MPG (enter the difference between your current MPG and 64 MPG).\u00a0 Hit the Tab key to register the change, and list the resultant reductions below.\u00a0 You can obtain the New CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0emissions by subtracting the \u201clbs CO<sub>2<\/sub>\u00a0avoided\u201d from your previous total, or by scrolling
