I am all for going green. I believe that in time we will work our way from oil and fossil fuels as our source of energy. The time we live in now is the transition period from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Soon not only will our houses and offices be fueled and heated by the sun and wind, but our cars and trucks as well.
If you go to the link below it will take you to a blog site done by "Geri-Lynn." Here, she introduces a "smart car" done by Mercedes that is eco-friendly. The panels on this car are exchangeable and recyclable. The car gives less carbon emissions than the cars made today. More info can be found on her site. Check it out.
I like the idea of the car. It gives off little carbon emissions and saves you a few gas bucks. The shape and style is what I do not like. I am into trucks and sports cars. I like having a car that I do not have to climb down into and crawl out of. I like space and speed. I know that making a car that is both energy efficient and huge is difficult at this time period. I think more effort should be put towards making cars like the "smart car" but has the style that resembles the cars and trucks we drive today. You are never going to catch me in a car that looks like this. So, until smart cars are made to look like the trucks we drive today, I will continue driving a gas gargling, carbon emitting Chevy.
