Green Car Of The Year
#1
From this article...

Quote:The winner is a 5,000-plus pound V8-powered full-size SUV—the all-new Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid.

How the hell can a vehicle that consumes 5,000lbs of material to make and has the fuel efficiency of a regular gas-powered car be considered the most green?

I have lost all respect for the current environmental movement -- anyone who follows this line of thinking is an absolute idiot -- or an incredible hypocrit.

And if you're going to vote on a green car, you may want to pick more objective means of judging than by the current panel of 'environmentalists'....

Quote:The Green Car of the Year is selected by a jury of environmental and industry leaders, along with four Green Car Journal editors. Invited jurors this year included Carroll Shelby, Jay Leno, Carl Pope (Sierra Club), Christopher Flavin (Worldwatch Institute), Jonathan Lash (World Resources Institute), and Jean-Michel Cousteau (Ocean Futures Society).
