I wish gas was more expensive!

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm disappointed that gas has dropped so low. We were making so much progress on focusing everyone on driving and their gas usage. Numerous people were educating themselves on good driving tips to conserve gas, carpooling, or avoiding trips all together. Hybrid and gas efficient cars were being purchased as fast as they could be produced, and certain auto companies were suffering because of their lack of understanding of their customers and the market.

Now, people are letting up, and reverting back to their old behaviors. Don't fall into that trap!

Just because gas is half the price, you are still using the same amount of fuel as before, and releasing the same amount of carbon dioxide into the air.

Continue to make public transportation, carpooling and gas-less transportation a priority, no matter how low the price per gallon falls. It will only be a matter of time before it climbs back up again!
