Earth Day pledge

I posted a comment over at good.is regarding an Earth Day pledge. I thought I'd also post it here:

I have invested in CFL light bulbs, paid extra for my electricity to be from 100% renewable sources, stopped buying water (and most other beverage types) in plastic bottles, and went from driving a car that gets 18 mpg to one that gets 50 mpg.

I’d like to do more, and will over time. I like the idea of eating more locally and will try to do that more. I’d like to better understand the implications of what we eat and where it comes from on our environment.

First fill-up 2010 Honda Insight

Well, 41 mpg is very good, but I know better mpg numbers are coming. The colder weather kept the mileage down for the first tank. I've been getting over 50 mpg more recently as it has warmed this week.
 
More to come including some videos when I get a new camera.

The photos of my Honda Insight

Fresh from a detailing (thanks Zimbrick Honda)--photos of my 2010 Honda Insight.

So far, I'm liking it a lot. I'll post a review and more info after my first tank of gas (it could be a while).
