The transportation sector is typically pegged to account for 23% of global greenhouse gas emissions and is often considered one of the top industries that require addressing to prevent the worst effects of climate change. These considerations are typically only looking at tailpipe emissions that come from fueling cars, trucks, and more. However, the fundamental needs for such transportation isn't just fuel-- it's the wheels that actually perform the movement, and tires specifically require consideration of their level of 'green,' especially regarding how they are handled at the end of their useful lifetimes.
