Shipping Your Car with CRAFTS Transport Company Can Aid in the Fight Against Global Warming

It might be hard to imagine that by choosing an auto transport company to ship a vehicle rather than driving from origin to destination, you would be contributing to the fight against global warming. It certainly does. Transportation is the biggest source of U.S. carbon dioxide emissions: more than factories or homes. So you can see that when it comes to global warming, how and what we drive are two of our most powerful choices.

The burning of fossil fuels (gasoline, diesel, etc.) to facilitate transportation and the subsequent release of carbon dioxide and other suspected greenhouse gases is under strong critique. The reduction of these environmental menaces must be a top priority if we hope to save our planet and prevent further permanent damage due to global warming.

The following emission data is from the Department of Energy website at www.DOE.gov.

Just one of our transport trucks can carry up to Eight (8) vehicles

• One gallon of gasoline produces 19.564 lbs of carbon dioxide.

  Average mpg for a car or SUV is 19 mpg.

  One gallon of diesel produces 22.384 pounds of carbon dioxide.

  Average mpg for an auto transport truck is 4.7.

Just one auto transport company shipped over 90,000 vehicles within a 12-month period of time and had the following impact:

• 2,926,000 gallons of fuel saved
• 38,216,000 pound reduction of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere
