The American Trucking Associations asked Congress to support the trucking industry’s environmental initiatives, which will reduce fuel consumption by 86 billion gallons and reduce the carbon footprint of all vehicles by nearly a billion tons over the next 10 years.
“It is in our best business interest to reduce our energy consumption, improve our profitability, and reduce our levels of emissions and greenhouse gases,” said Tommy Hodges, Chairman of Shelbyville, Tenn.-based truckload carrier Titan Transfer, Inc. “Our industry is proud of its environmental record in reducing emissions and transitioning to clean fuels.”
