The price of gas.
Here’s a link on how to save money on petrol.
I found it via Lifehacker. Which reminds me that the next time I purchase a vehicle, I am definitely going to buy smaller and more efficient. My Focus isn’t horrible, of course, but it sure wasn’t built with economy in mind; I want one that is.
The problem with that is this: if everyone cuts their fuel consumption in half, the price of gas will go down to the point where cutting consumption will no longer be economically viable. A free market, problem if you will. A tragedy of the commons. I hate to say it, but the only way to curb fuel dependency seems to be keeping prices high, even if that has be achieved artificially.
