http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/2007/12/29/live-like-you-teach en-us 40 <p>In our neighboring country, Sweden, king Carl Gustav has publicly been a proponent of sustainable living. <a href="http://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/article776976.ab" title="Aftonbladet">Aftonbladet</a> has earlier reported that the king is recycling and offers rather tap water than bottled water. As he likes his cars, so far he has had 9 gas-guzzlers in his garage. However, today Aftonbladet reported that the king has been seen driving a Volvo S30, a compact car with fairly good exhaust values. I'm happy to see that people don't just talk anymore, but also act. Especially it's important that public figures show a good example in this. </p> <p>By the way, if you are interested in the exhaust values of cars, have a look at the <a href="http://ekoake.autoalanverkkopalvelu.fi/default.asp" title="Ekoake">Ekoake</a> search service by Finnish authorities. You can search for cars with the max CO2 emissions or gas consumption. If you see such services in English, please let me know!</p> Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:04:00 +0200 urn:uuid:007be29b-b28a-43fe-b295-2e4d56434d84 admin http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/2007/12/29/live-like-you-teach Transport CO2 emissions car http://ekoneko.com/blog/articles/trackback/8
