Ok,

If you found this site and this forum, you might already have a clue. But as an engineer, I know when I'm reading a 'non-engineering' article and this one seemed so 'born to be mild.'

I was working on my book, Locavore, at the time and I was reading lots of studies about food miles. I kept reading that the largest portion of the food miles often comes from people driving to the grocery store to pick up their food.
We had to buy a new car. We were driving an Echo and we just had a second child. I was in the passenger seat with my knees at my nose. My husband and I chose the Prius because our first and foremost consideration was environmental. We wanted to reduce our carbon emissions.
