Quote of the Week: Too Little, Too Late

This is depressing:
“First there is what might be called the moralistic approach: Be less bad. Get rid of your SUV and buy a Prius. The problem here is that, according to Worldchanging.org, a minimum of 50 to 60 percent of the lifetime energy consumption of a car goes into its manufacture and shipping, so this may translate into feel-a-little-too-good-a-little-too-late.”

-- from “The Eco-Design Movement,” May 2007 edition of Dwell: At Home in the Modern World
