 Honda has just received another award for it's continual invovlement of preventing further damage to the enviornment through the use of fuel emmisions. in February, Honda’s Ohio and Alabama auto plants have received Energy Star Awards from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for advances in energy efficiency in the production of cars and trucks. The EPA bases their award on the amount of energy it takes to produce a vehicle; plant volume and vehicle sizes are taken into account. These two plants received a perfect 100 score from the EPA, and the average CO2 level per vehicle produced by these plants was the lowest ever measured at any U.S. auto plant. "Improving the energy efficiency of Honda factories is the single biggest focus to reduce the impact of our manufacturing operations on climate change," said Gary Smith of Company Facilities at Honda of America Manufacturing. "We have launched significant efforts throughout our operations to reduce the energy intensity of automobile production."

The best thing about this is, the very cars that are produced in these plants are available to you through Brickell Honda of Miami, and BrickellHondaDirect.com. Keeping Miami and the earth beautiful is important to me, and I am confident giving a big helping hand to the environment just by choosing a Honda as my car. I can hope that you feel the same way too.
