[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you believe that the use of fossil fuels has caused/accelerated/contributed to climate change and drive an SUV, please help me understand how you reconcile your beliefs with your vehicle choice.  I would genuinely like to know.  I live in Bethesda and practically everybody I know drives an SUV.  Yet I'm pretty sure that, if I asked, they would say they are very concerned about climate change and disappointed the US withdrew from the Kyoto protocol.  Obviously I risk alienating friends and neighbors if I ask this directly as it could sound accusatory.  Please only answer if you have an SUV and these beliefs.[/quote]

I have an SUV and an SUV saves more fuel than an electric car. GM and Ford for instance sells electric/hybrid cars at almost break even or a slight low do to high costs and R&D involved. SUVs have huge profits of 7-15K per vehicle. That profit is used to create new electric technologies.

You should thank these people as they are doing more for environment than folks driving electriccars.         [/quote]
