Do you complain about traffic? Do you have a long commute? Did you know that cars account for 20% of the U.S. global warming emissions? 20%! You should continue to drive, but have you stopped to consider what the alternatives might be?
Walk – Do you ever drive to places that you could just as easily walk to? Helps the waistline too!
Bicycle- Wouldn’t you just love to whiz past that long line of cars as they wait in rush hour traffic? This is multi-tasking people! Exercise reduces stress! And with the rising cost of gasoline, who couldn’t use a few extra bucks?
Mass transit- Metro/Subway/Bus. Whatever your community offers! Sometimes this may not be the most convenient way to go, but have you considered how much easier it would be to let someone else do the driving, while you sit back and read? At least check it out! The schedules and low prices might astound you!
Fuel efficient car – not everyone can own a hybrid (but if you can…do…they rock!). If you are in the market for new wheels, however, at least look for a car that gets good mileage! No words to the Hummer drivers here…we would like to give everyone a chance…
