Celebrity Driver Leilani Munter Wants NASCAR To Go Green

As a born and bred Floridian, I understand that for many people NASCAR is a deeply holy activity, second only perhaps to football or all-you-can-eat buffets.
When you think about NASCAR and other driving related sporting activities, the first words that pop into your head probably aren’t: eco, green or environment. But celebrity driver Leilani Munter wants to change all of that.
Munter describes herslef as a “carbon-free girl”, and a “vegetarian hippie chick race car driver,” and has started the Eco Dream Team — a green program that encourages NASCAR fans to become more environmentally-aware about their lifestyle and how it effects the world around them.
As previously stated, Leilani is a proud vegetarian and when you consider the fact that the meat-industry contributes more towards global warming than every mode of transportation combined, one could argue that she is technically more of an environmentalist than her bicylce-riding meat-eating counterpart.
What do you think? Can Leilani help NASCAR go green? Chime in and share your thoughts!

I have never before been interested in NASCAR, but I love that there is a veg girl making a difference through her sport! Keep it up Leilani!
I have never been interested in NASCAR either but since I live close enough to the official track to occasionally hear them race I cannot help but be involved. Leilani is fantastic.. I want to introduce her to a vegetarian veggie oil car race car driver who is not NASCAR but races at the daytona 500. they’re perfect for each other. I don’t live in daytona but that’s how loud the cars are if you can believe it… With the right wind they can be heard all the way at the beach here in a whole other town with another in between
She’s awesome.

I guess the Bee Four full electric car is really something for Leilani.
