U.S. carmakers have joined forces to promote a program that aims to re-train the way drivers approach their cars.

By focusing on maintenance and driving style, the EcoDriving website, launched by the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers an the Environmental Defense Fund, promises to reduce fuel use by up to 15%.

The Alliance is an industry lobbyist group...

To say that this is not enough would be obvious, but at least it is a start in the right direction.
