In 2007 there were roughly 254.4 million registered passenger vehicles in the United States. Each of these vehicles emits exhaust into our worlds atmosphere. Vehicles emit hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and water; only one of those is good (hint: water). Each gallon of gas produces 25 pounds of toxic emissions which cause breathing problems and many other health problems. To me, vehicle emissions is public health.
