"We have not inherited the earth from our ancestors, we have only borrowed it from our children" |
|
|
This is a quote often used at Bi-Tron, and we'd like each of you to take a few moments to think it through. We need to ask ourselves: "What am I doing to preserve the environment - for myself, my children and the children of tomorrow?" |
| The pollution problem is a monumental one, and can seem overwhelming. The air quality is getting worse every year. How does air pollution come about? Hydrocarbons, nitrogen and their oxidization products (produced when we burn fossil fuels such as gasoline or diesel in our cars) react in sunlight to produce toxic compounds, including ozone and nitrogen oxides. The resulting pollution is known as photochemical smog - a mixture of tiny, potentially lethal particles. | |

Alarming Statistics...
Government statistics report that the average car belches out over four tonnes of emissions every year - twice it’s weight in carbon dioxide alone. The resulting smog is harmful not only to vegetation, it is a component of acid rain and contributes to global warming. It harms humans by irritating our eyes and lungs and cause shortness of breath, fatigue, headaches and nausea. High air pollution levels contribute to a high mortality rate, especially among the elderly. Children are most affected by smog since they are still growing, and because they breathe faster and spend more time outdoors in the summer. The Contribution Tyre Safety Solution Can Make... Under- inflated Tyres wear out faster, waste fuel (statistics indicate that they increase fuel consumption by as much as 10%) and are unsafe. Installing Bi-Tron Tyre Safety Solution in your Tyres will maintain your Tyre pressure at the correct level and increase Tyrelife by as much as 25%. The 10% percent savings on your fuel bill by having your Tyres remain at the correct pressure means 10% less fuel is burnt- this not only conserves fuel but prevents it from entering the atmosphere as vehicular emissions (10% of 4 tonnes on an annual basis makes a significant impact!) Your Tyres themselves are manufactured from oil. Each of the four Tyres on your car can take as much as half a barrel of crude oil to manufacture. By using Tyre Safety Solution to extend Tyre life, you are reducing the number of old Tyred that end up in landfills or burning sites, creating waste and air pollution. In British Columbia alone, we threw out 2.5 million used passenger and light truck Tyres in 1995! "If we want things to change, we have to change." If we really care about our environment and want to improve it, we each need to start making the necessary changes. We can’t wait for our government, our neighbor, or anyone else to make these changes for us. It’s individual action in our own backyard and communities that will reduce air quality problems- from neighborhood smoke to global atmospheric deterioration. |
