The aim of this website

Is to explore what an individual can do to make a difference. I am absolutely convinced that Global Warming is in progress and that we must do all in our power to reverse the trend. Contact me by commenting on my posts.

Actions that can be taken at five levels: personal, local, state, national and international.

Car sharing with my friend Patience

Yesterday I used my friend's car for the first time. Our arrangement to get the car back to her on the same day fell through, when I needed to go to a local newspaper office immediately for an interview.

She graciously let me keep the car until tomorrow when she must have it. I know the odometer began at 909 kilometres and I have to remember to make my first entry in our logbook before I give the car back.

If this agreement works to our mutual satisfaction I will sell my small car. I like to imagine someone will pick it up, as an alternative to driving a larger gas guzzler, and then squeeze a few more years usefulness out of this little car.
