[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one is going to like this suggestion, but drive less frequently! Auto emissions are an huge individual contribution to climate change. Encourage your local government to expand public transportation options and pedestrian/cycling infrastructure. [/quote] Oh wow. I was an eco warrior when younger, so took the bus to work. It hurt my career in so many ways. Couldn’t meet folks for lunch, had to be sure to leave around bus schedule so didn’t end up doubling my commute. It was exhausting being on a stinky poorly cooled or heated bus or metro. I was constantly worried my laptop would be swiped. I tried biking, but it takes even longer, and showering at work takes forever (packing and unpacking clothes at both ends, toiletries) and people saw you in your dorky helmet and you had to store your bike in your office so just seemed unprofessional. Maybe if you live in a high rise next to metro and work in a high rise next to metro, or have to bike 1/2 mile in California weather those are viable options. Maybe. [/quote]
