Far to little - far too late...sorry!
There are some 800 billion cars on this Planet, please tell me:
how many of those are electric?

It should be 800 million cars, of course...
but that is 700 million too many.

You're right Teresa,
I should not be so pessimistic (or, should I say realistic?)
Some 35 years ago, I was an idealistic optimist though, really believing in change for the better.
For all of us, the environment, and wildlife on Planet Mother Earth, the One and Only that we have.
If we (many, many more of us) had started then with ACTION on what many are TALKING about today...
Who knows; it could only have been for the better!
That's what I think, but who would possibly give a damn about my opinion?

hahahahaha Ben, I always say that I am realistic.

Also I keep on dreaming and I believe if we change our ways of treating nature we will leave a better world for future generations.

Thanks for commenting, your opinion is important for all Care2 members and I am being realistic.
