Can you try to be a little more obvious with the plant? It is sad how PR people are starting to use blog comments for free advertising. Nice plug, Sarah.

How can GM get just as much credit for a car that gets 20 miles to the gallon when you look at the Honda Fit. Really, do lots of people NEED 9 person vehicles? I think not. What we need is to change the general perception of what is necessary to drive if we are ever going to address climate change seriously. I was at a conference last week at Art Center College called the Sustainability Summit (http://www.artcenter.edu/summit/) and they featured the new Mitsubishi and the Tata Nano, both great examples of green vehicles, especially the Nano since it is SO cheap, $2500 (though it has no A/C). Additionally, once car companies make better cars, the major task is going to be change our infrastructure. I was really impressed by the developers and companies at the Art Center Summit and I really hope more schools and companies start following Art Center's lead by bringing people together who are trying to make sweeping changes. I'm also really interested to see what emerges from the Art Center Global Dialogues (another big event:http://blog.globaldialogues.eu/) on climate changes and green design and how it effects business and culture.
