I reckon that the crude oil required to power your automobile to the grocery store a couple of times would lubricate my bicycle for life. And if I don't pass gas while riding I emit zero hydrocarbons. I'm doing my part, how about yourself
Oh, I have an automobile but it hasn't moved in 18 months. I refuse to be part of the problem.
No audio after 3:28. Is it possible to put a text transcription of what you said after that? I couldn't agree more with what's been said prior to that point though.
I unfortunately have to drive my car 12 miles for schedule reasons -- a bike would just take too long, considering the other things I have packed in a day. But, were it not for "the clock," I'd be biking it every day.
There was nothing said during the pause. I knew it wasn't recording during that moment.
One thing to do if it's hard to fit in your daily commuting is to find a couple of those short motorized trips you make regularly and replace them with walking or cycling. Eg. grocery, library, picking kids up from school.
Nicely said. It's great to have a response which addresses the concerns without being defensive or argumental. A mature rebuttal to an immature audience.
Imagine, for example, a high-speed rail next to the UP line along I-5. Yes this costs us, but has greater payoff in the long-run. Are we are willing to spend $ and lives at this current rate to protect our petrol interests? In the mean time, we can individually ask with each trip be it on bike or car, is it necessary or can it be combined...
The amount of both energy (money) and lives we have spent for petrol in the past century is beyond imagination. Looking at other biofuel sources and the chord that has been struck is similar. We must decide where best to utilize our resources (energy).
I agree that some sort of chord has been struck in people though most of it seems to be a name-calling contest. I particularly found Ashley's comments helpful, expanding.
Prudent use of any resource is the way to go. It always take energy to extract energy. This is the first law of thermodynamics and is crucial argument about any kind of energy transfer production be it wind, solar, petrol, hydro--all have their costs and benefits.

There appears to be some kind of glitch in the video at 3:28

Thanks for the heads up. The camera shut off for a second. I just decided to go with it.
