Pump it Up @ Home!

 Pump it Up at your own home is a great way to make your first carbon saving and you will receive a United Nations endorsed Environmental Action Certificate for the effort! It's simple, just pump up your car tyres to the right level. See the simple steps below...

Also, all volunteers who pump it up and provide tyre pressure data and/or photographic evidence will be entered into a prize draw for a £50 gift and the volunteer who pumps up the most cars will get a £75 gift.

What?

Keeping tyres pumped up saves between 50-90kg of CO₂ a year per car. We are asking 3000 of our volunteers to take part, so with your help we can save 270 Tonnes of Carbon from this one action. Thats the same an average person in the UK will make in 27 years!

How?

Follow this step-by-step process:

1. Ask permission from the car owner to pump up their car tyres to the correct level.
2. Go to http://www.tyre-pressures.com/ to find out what the car tyre pressure should be (you’re looking for the PSI number).
3. Grab a pump. Either use the car owners or go to a local petrol station.
4. Now pump up the tyres to the level the website recommends.
5. Finally, fill in this survey to let us know you have successfully carried out your own Pump it Up so that we can send you your UNEP Environmental Action Certificate.
6. Alternatively send in a photo of yourself pumping up your car as evidence.

 Thanks!
