He drives a Lexus with 200,000 miles on it I bought for them 10 years ago when they were in school.

But both of my children are very responsible regarding doing everything they can to make a better world for futrue generations. They recycle and grow organic gardens. They live modest lives. My older daughter (a lawyer) foregoes a full second income so she can concentrate a lot of time on educating their children.

When I was with my younger daughter (an environmental scientist) a few years back, we went in to get some tomatoes. She did not have her bag and would not let me me use a plastic bag and I had to carry the tomatoes out in my arms.

I am very proud that my children are doing everyting they can to make the earth a better place for future generations as opposed to those who would just shit on the earth and then brag about it.

They are also very active in helping the poor and making their community a better place to live. The both have a strong social conscience. They also use no welfare-lol.

Does your son the scientist drive a Volt or Leaf?

Both of those have too high an energy footprint, especially coal generated electricity. He should walk or bike everywhere.
