Slow down . . .

or stay home (that is stay out of the car) is how some experts are saying we can best conserve energy this winter (and save money). We can do more by simply doing these two things than so many other things combined! Below is a quote that if you click on it, will take you to an insteresting article on this topic.

“If, as a country, we were to obey speed limits for the next two months, we would probably conserve more fuel than will be lost by the refinery outages.”

We really haven’t found much to dissuade us from our “one car, walking (or bus taking), family” lifestyle yet . . . . but the part about slowing down is definitely more challenging!
