Not Much Greener, Sadly

An article appearing in today's Globe and Mail - How Green is My Car - reminded me once again that talk is cheap and while Canadians may talk about the importance of being greener, their actions fall a bit short.

I seem to remember someone saying recently that oil (at about $90/bbl) is only just now approaching the inflation-adjusted price it was a couple of decades ago. Anyone complaining about today's price has probably forgotten that. It would also help to remember that even at today's price, gasoline is still cheaper than milk (and beer, for that matter!).
