One of the most frustrating things about this oil spill is its origin. The wasteful "Hummer H2 Lifestyle" encourages oil spills.
The suburbia I currently live in (for school only) is an example. In a bicycle/walking friendly town, I could go to a grocery store located not more than 20 minutes away. Instead, 3 major grocery stores are located within 1/4 mile of each other on the other side of town. The town just exudes wastefulness.

Just have to get these folks to realize that the demand for oil spills come with the demand for oil. Then follow the R's in order. Reduce is the fiRst R for a Reason.

OK, OK, I'll get off the soap box.
