personal transportation is one thing, but generation of power for air
conditioning, computers, display lighting could be seen as over the
top. shipping products worldwide instead of buying what is produced
locally also creates much pollution.
we can talk to people around the world but have in many places
isolated ourselves from our neighbors. people live in fear of what's
just outside their door and now children are driven everywhere for
protection, the sense of community has just about disappeared in many
places. when i think about all of the bike things i've had shipped to
and fro, even as a daily bike commuter i'm a bit ashamed.
