Reduce Global Warming
Tags: MI# 229
Hey, I don't know about all of you out there, but I'm very concerned about the effects of Global Warming in our lifetime! I'm always wondering what daily rituals I could modify to help make a difference. If enough of us do it, it will certainly help!
I've already changed my driving habits (drive a small efficient gas car), but any new creative ideas?

Al Gore writes: "the reason Congress has so far failed to act on Global Warming is not because there are no solutions to the problem. Nor is it because the majority doesn't believe that the climate crisis is real. They have failed to act, because they have not yet faced a sufficient expression of political will on the part of the American people demanding they confront our climate crisis head on. You and I know that political will is a renewable resource, and enough already exists to start solving this crisis. We just have to communicate that forcefully to the political leaders of our country".

It's a quick & easy way to be heard and make a difference!
One of the original streamlining measures is/was to allow a right turn on a red light, unless otherwise posted. It prevents drivers idling needlessly, when traffic otherwise permits continuing on your way.
My father remembers the days when there was a toll each way at the tunnels and bridges in and out of Manhattan. Such a simple concept. Reduce the use of petrofuels, and any other fuel at the operational level.
Akin to eliminating stops a toll booths.
What about a cash version of EZPass, that does not reference the vehicle, only the account of the sending unit.
