We've got an idea at Reader's Digest, and we need your help. Given the conflict surrounding foreign oil, we've come up with a plan for what we can all do at home. Make a commitment to save a gallon of gas by signing up at rd.com/saveagallon.

The 130 million Americans who drive typically consume about 2.6 billion gallons of gas each week in April. If every one of us used just one gallon less, we'd reduce the amount of fuel we burn that week by 5 percent. That's a whopping 130 million gallons saved, or more crude oil than we import from Kuwait in an entire month!

So we teamed up with the American Automobile Association to launch our first annual SAVE-A-GALLON campaign at rd.com/saveagallon.

Click here today and sign our Declaration of Oil Independence to save a gallon or more of gas during the week of Earth Day, April 22 (Monday, April 19 to Sunday, April 25). There, you'll find easy and efficient ideas for reducing the amount of fuel you use.

Pledge at rd.com/saveagallon before April 25, and if you are interested, Reader's Digest may contact you for an interview about how you did it, so you can inspire others!

Best wishes,
