If you're the type that buys their car with the leisure in mind, I'm gonna assume you're not cost constrained and should be doing more to help the env anyway.

hypotheticals are irrelevant so you do you, have a good life, and when you wake up to the damage you're doing / have done, do your best to improve things.

My car is over 20 years old and cost well below the average used car price in North America. I'm not rich, just a car enthusiast.

But I keep an open mind. What other things can I do to help the environment?
