    least their use case is part of their employment, and not part of their entirely optional entertainment.

    And if they’re driving to an entertainment event, like say a concert, a vacation, or a park, is that any better than me going for a drive for the sake of going for a pleasure cruise of equal distance? Keep in mind that my sports car is no gas guzzler. It gets the same fuel economy as an average, mid-sized sedan, and better than an average SUV or truck which dominate our roads.

      If you’re the type that buys their car with the leisure in mind, I’m gonna assume you’re not cost constrained and should be doing more to help the env anyway.

      hypotheticals are irrelevant so you do you, have a good life, and when you wake up to the damage you’re doing / have done, do your best to improve things.

        My car is over 20 years old and cost well below the average used car price in North America. I’m not rich, just a car enthusiast.

        But I keep an open mind. What other things can I do to help the environment?
