That's a good start.

How many states have mandatory recycling? Tore this out of a magazine I get...

By printing California Update with vegetable based inks on 100% post-consumer recycled paper made with windmill energy, we saved:

55 trees
6,906 lbs of landfill
10,064 lbs of greenhouse emissions
83,614 gallons of water
97,121 BTUs of energy.

It's another step. It won't solve it, but it's another step in the right direction. It's only in moonshots and canyon jumps you really have to go the whole distance all at once...

(I can think of so many pat responses to that. Teenage ones especially)

What kind of car did you buy besides that it's four cylinder.. I take it you didn't do the Prius ?

Just looked at my last tank's mileage and it was 48.5

So what did you buy? And keep us abreast of developments. The first moment of buyer remorse; the first serious mileage check, etc.
