Don’t: Wash your car in the driveway. Water that runs from your car on the driveway easily enters storm drains and into rivers, streams and creeks and eventually poisons innocent aquatic creatures.
Do: Use a bio-degradable soap like Simple Green’s Car Wash.
Live in the city without much elbow room and don’t want to go the do-it-yourself route? Do look for a local car wash that collects & recycles its water.
