It’s idle-free week. Did you know less than 1% of global land area has safe air quality. The Knoxville area was ranked in the top 25 cities in the U.S. with the worst air pollution in 2019. Vehicle Idling is part of this problem. Turning off your car when it is not in motion can do a lot for the environment. (F 5/17) L. Wilmoth
