    Reducing (or eliminating) exhaust emissions and improving public health are two benefits of green vehicles. What other motivators inspire you to consider switching to a more fuel-efficient vehicle?

    The cost savings by switching to an electric vehicle is immense and this has led me to investigate the world of electric cars.

    What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?

    I often use plastic straws and plastic bottles. To combat this I could use cardboard straws and fill a reusable water bottle from the faucet.
