I would ride more to work, except the bike access in Toronto between my place and work is atrocious. This city needs to do more to make it bike friendly. But, at any rate, I'm rarely ever in a car these days. The most I use public transit is the subway, and it's always packed, so I'm sure it must be somewhat efficient.
I work in a small office that gets hot in the summer anyway, so showering isn't a big deal. I just freshen up in the bathroom with a towel and deodorant. Leto, just get yourself a nice backpack. I'm sure you could manage up to 10 lbs. of stuff no problem.
My trouble is reducing my environmental footprint in other ways. I'm sure I'm burning too much oil in the consumer choices I make.
