I would put 'car' on the 'bad travel' side. Even if it is a plug-in hybrid powered by your very own solar panels, it's a lot of hardware that needs to be build and scrapped in order to move a few hundred pounds of human around.

It seems as if everything is turning green nowadays. And people just can't understand why consumers aren't buying more of it. Not rocket science - really. People buy for many reasons - not just the environmental impact. You think you can sell a "green" blow-up doll? Maybe look at functionality, price, quality etc first before turning everything green. Then we can start changing the consumers. More on this on my blog at http://angryafrican.wordpress.com/2008/02/18/make-it-bett ...

I would also add investing in green companies.  My mother in law asked my husband and I what she could do to live more greenly without changing her somewhat lavish lifestyle.  I suggested she take her stock out of Walmart for starters!  Investing in green companies is a simply way of showing that you care about our world.
