But I will say to you... you are on a computer, that uses tons of resources that are pretty equal to emissions from vehicles. The electricity you use for the infrastructure to be on the internet creates emissions as well.
That said, I'm going to say to you that there are facts of life that happen to be. I need to have goods trucked to where I am. There are places in the world that I want to go see.
I drive a simple vehicle, it's a Plymouth Neon. While I wish it were different it is not. It gets good gas mileage, while not the best, it's better than the vehicle I had 10 years ago, which was also pretty spartan a Toyota Corolla.
I drive my car less than 8,000 miles a year. All the other time my car is parked and I take public transportation and walk everywhere else.
I will also gather that you walk everywhere you go, you don't buy ANY food or products that are trucked in from anywhere or flown in from anywhere. If you do, then your statement is duly noted as being hypocritical.
If you have something to add, then please add it.

Besides crushing most any hope of an argument that iamnormal might have, I gotta agree with Cynthetiq with what he's said through-out the topic.
