Leonardo DiCaprio's "The 11th Hour" is a documentary concerning the environmental crises caused by human actions and calls for restorative action through a reshaping of human activity.
The mission of our community is to inspire action at every level: from
individual action, up through our communities, to the state, national
and international level. The actions are all shifting our civilization
to a sustainable future. Let's work and take action together. The time is now. The hope is you. Let's begin.
I love the idea of getting rid of incentives to own large
gas guzzling vehicles; however, in my opinion, this legislation is an obvious
example of greenwashing. The article
states, “A number of lawmakers scoffed at the requirement, saying that forcing them
into less-polluting vehicles would do almost nothing to affect climate change,
and suggested that Congress could take more significant action to reduce oil
imports.” I would prefer our lawmakers to
focus on sustainability and not on the vehicles they personally drive.
