Going Green One Upsmanship
Like most people these days, I'm thinking more and more about the environment and resource usage. I find in a lot of cases I don't have the knowledge to know which habits are truly greener than other habits.
For instance, in a public restroom, is it better to use paper towels to dry my hands or use the electricity consuming air dryers? Should I purchase a new Hybrid Prius (damaging the environment with the Prius' manufacturing) or purchase a used, fuel efficient Corrolla?
Check out The Green Lantern for scientific answers to some of these kinds of questions. It's really interesting to me. The downside is that we can't all have bio-environmental engineering degrees to know what to do when we just want to dry our hands. I'm really interested to see what life habits will change over the course of my life time due to the thrust of environmental consciousness.
By the way, I'm not going to purchase a used Corolla or a new Prius - I'm purchasing Lance's F4 Interceptor Scooter! 70 to 80 mpg, baby!

If you are serious about the scooter, I hope your insurance is paid up. Be careful out there!
Hey Michelle. Yep, I'm serious - I hope to get it ordered today. I'm planning to only drive it on a pretty easy road back and forth to work. But, I definitely will be careful!
When you are riding your really safe scooter to work, I hope you dont get mugged at a stop light and someone take your really cool glasses that I know you will be sporting!

You're just jealous because you wish you could be as cool as me.
