I used to think when gas was 50 cents a gallon that if it hit $2.00 a gallon people would start to conserve. I don't see a lot of that happening. Gas is now $4.00 a gallon and people are still buying large vehicles.

In countries like India where the population is seeing better incomes they are going from bikes and mopeds to Tata Nano's. They want cars and air conditioning like the rest of the world.

I'm hoping things like the Organic Transit ELF will take off but I wonder if it's just those of us who think the planet has to last a couple of billion years more care enough to employ these types of things.

Standard ELF 1.5 | Organic Transit
