I.. only drive if it's not within walking distance.
I can get to the post office, bank, grocery store, city hall, and Dairy Queen in less than five minutes on foot. Anything else is like twenty miles away.
:1orglaugh That sounds eerily like Midland, TX.
The most ecologically thing anyone can do is to drive their gas guzzling cars until the wheels fall off. People don't realize that owning a Vaginamobile, I'm sorry, Hybrid car, does far worse things to the environment than a conventionally powered auto. Mining Lithium and the other composites that go into their batteries; shipping everything back and forth on a cargo ship and other factors mean that one of those tree hugging pussies has polluted far worse than my 1988 Ford Bronco before they have even driven it off the lot.
I meant to write "The most ecologically sound thing............."
I don't own a car. Bike everywhere. My gf grows veggies in the backyard. We recycle everything possible. We produce very little garbage. Half a bin every two weeks. Turn the lights off and all that shit.
I walk, everywhere. Have not owned a car my life, have absolutely no interest in ever doing so. I am in good enough shape to walk where ever I need.
I recycle everything that I can recycle. I buy at the local farmer's market.
Among other things.
I burn tires and motor oil. The black cloud means it's healthy. Then I pour battery acid into the water.
For all of you solar guys... do you have any idea how solar panels are manufactured (in china)? Well, they're like giant computer motherboards that consist of various toxic resins and heavy metals for starters. They're environmentally unfriendly in the manufacturing process and they're environmentally unfriendly at the end of their service life, i.e. not recyclable. Yep, just line up all of the PRC's political prisoners (the one's who are lucky enough not to have their organs harvested), and put them to work on the world's largest producing solar panel manufacturers where there are no environmental restraints whatsoever.... and just dump all of todays 55 gallon drums of PCB laden sludge out yonder some 200 yards away from the assembly line, nobody will notice.
Oh, and manufacture these solar panels to the degree that they'll only have an approximate 7 year service life ... keep those irons hot in China! :1orglaugh
You sound like my partner, only drives 240 Volvos if he can't get 500,000 miles from one he feels cheated!The most ecologically thing anyone can do is to drive their gas guzzling cars until the wheels fall off.
