CCX - Helping to Reduce Emissions

The Chicago Climate Exchange represents the first legally binding commitment by a cross-section of North American corporations, municipalities and other institutions to establish a rules-based market for reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

CCX enables members to receive credit for reductions, and to buy and sell credits to determine the most cost-effective means of achieving emission reductions.

More than 200 leading businesses and public institutions, including global companies such as Stora Enso, Ford Motor, American Electric Power, Dupont, Motorola, Rolls Royce and IBM, have voluntarily joined CCX.

IndyCar Series - Using Renewable fuel in 2007

The IndyCar Series, which has been recognized for its technical leadership in automobile racing, is now the motorsports leader in renewable and environmentally responsible fuel produced in America.

The Honda V-8 engines in 2006 are powered by an ethanol/methanol blend (methanol had been the fuel since the Indy Racing League’s inception). In 2007, 100 percent fuel-grade ethanol will flow through the systems.

The long-term message is clear: If 650-horsepower IndyCar Series cars that cover the length of a football field in 1 second can run safely and effectively on ethanol, so can your automobile with reduced emissions as an add-on benefit.

Please watch the video below to gain a better understanding of how Ethanol is used and the benefits to the environment.
