Have You Hugged a Hummer Today? Hybrid vehicles' overall energy costs exceed those of comparable non-hybrids By Shikha Dalmia

Most of this environmental nonsense is the modern equivalent of the Victory Garden. It's actually pretty useless but makes people feel like they are doing something important.

As a willing cyber-concierge, I will assist you in your pursuit of a hummer.
Paging Monica, please pick up the white courtesy phone.
You can thank me later, maybe.
Cough.

CO2 - It’s green!!

I love my Hummer H2! Here are a few pics of her decked out for our recent 4th of July parade here in my hometown...
As you can see...our parade entry had both an anti-terrorism theme and an anti-tax theme. It was a fun day!
