  Re: Put a plug in it

  I did not realize that people could buy all electric cars by Chevy.  Are electric cars available for purchase by most manufacturers?  The only cars I know about are the hybrids.

  Frustrated with my city

  I live in Washington D.C. and have just discovered your great website and blog.  I loved reading this latest ask Umbra because I have been feeling for quite some time very alone in this city of our government.  I have been reading everything I can get my hands on about Global Warming and am very alarmed.  Nobody that I know at work, kid's schools or friends cares about this issue.  I am talking about the forecasts for the future but people don't want to hear it.  Since I read The Weathermakers, the seriousness of the future is front and center on my mind.  I feel like I am mentally loosing my friends because I can't just talk about which BMW to buy without wanting to teach them about being wasteful.  To them I am becoming a green nut and to me they are seriously blind to the seriousness of the issues.
  Anyway, I too thought about leaving but not only do I need nature to nuture me, I need friends.
