Hopefully you realize that biofuels are an improvement over fossil fuels (in some ways) but not a solution to our oil dependency or global warming/pollution. Nor are hybrids. Anyway, in the meantime you can improve your gas mileage in many (simple) ways. Google "improve gas mileage" and "hypermiling". Great list.

I love the sponsoring a needy family with organic veggies and the stuff you want to do with the kiddos. Just yesterday I had 2 enviro geared moments with my boys. We ventured to Target and there was a McD's bag blowing around. My 8 year old jumped on it and stuffed it into the nearby garbage can. Later, my 5 year old unwrapped some candy he had gotten and handed me the wrapper saying firmly, "Mommy, do NOT throw that out the window". lol...as if I've ever done that in my life (seriously...never have). Still...I gotta be a little proud, ya know? Its nice when you see it all sinking in. Great list, Tiffany.

Last year we hadn't moved into our new place in time so we went the community garden route and that was nice but there is nothing like walking out your back door and picking a fresh bell pepper!

I like the idea about sponsoring a local family in need and introducing them to sustainable/organic foods. I just had lunch with an old friend who was never much of an environmental person. I got a wake up call when she told me she was driving a hybrid car! That ended up being my blogaction topic. So I share your goal about getting a hybrid car. sharon Now that’s a great list – very doable and practical.
