We spent an hour there and collected a trash bag (the large industrial type) each of trash (mostly plastic bags and styrofoam bits) and recyclables.

IF EVERYONE LIVED LIKE YOU, WE WOULD NEED 2.6 PLANETS.

tread for yourself to look at your ecological footprint

Current Mood: still, not a hippie!

Anyone heard anything about E85? It's a mixture of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline (with a 105 octane rating - same stuff that burns out certain fuel injectors, if I remember correctly). But, the few stations that do currently carry this stuff are currently selling it in the DC metro are for <$2.50/gallon.

Honda i'nt on this list . . .

Neither is Volkswagon.

And, here I was thinking that Honda was such a forward thinking automotive company. I guess it doesn't get any simpler than 'No!'

Current Mood: forsaken

What can I do about it?

Since H and I work less than 3 miles from each other, we're experimenting with carpooling. But I was thinking more in terms of bicycling to work. Here're the stats:

Averge miles/gallon: 30
current $/gallon: $2.71 (and rising)
distance between work and home: 11.87 miles (23.74 roundtrip daily - cake!)

hmmmm. . . whether carpooling or bicycling I could save a yearly total of $559.64 just in (current) fuel costs.

Who do I send my proposal to in Hospice who can approve a bicycle-friendly dress code?

Current Mood: fuck big oil!
