Today’s Eco-tip is to Clean Your Car on Grass rather then on Paved Surfaces
Washing your car on paved surfaces allows your cleaning detergents to flow into your gutters only to be taken to our local water-ways such as the Cattai creek, contaminating them.
However, when you wash your car on the grass, the water along with the detergents, are soaked into the ground reducing the amount of chemicals and detergents reaching our nearby waterways.
