if this is a sudden occurance... then i would assume that something is definitely wrong. If this is something that has happened more gradually then i'd say its time for a tune up.

Check your injectors, fuel filter, air filter, make sure your tires are inflated to spec, and go easy on the gas pedal.

Things/Mods to increase fuel efficiency:
1. The basic bolt-ons (allows the car to breathe better)
2. New sparkplugs gaped at honda specifications
3. New Distributer cap + rotor
4. New Plug Wires
5. New Fuel Filter
6. Use Fuel Injector Cleaner
7. Check tire pressure
8. Change your oil regularly
9. Use 87 octane gas for nonVTEC, 91 for VTEC (unless your timing has been adjusted)
10. Drive like a grandma

I can't think of any others....
