Mods - I'm not sure if this belongs here. Kindly move where it is appropriate.

Earlier today, coming back to San Juan from Alabang, I was delayed by a large convoy of some 50 cars. Based on the tarps hung on some of the cars, the group was composed of people from a high school in Alabang celebrating a family Green Day event at the La Mesa Eco park, ostensibly to promote awareness of the need to protect the environment.

If so, wouldn't it have been more fuel-efficient to transport the group in buses? That way, they not only burn less fuel fossil but minimize adding pollution. They also wouldn't need the motorcycle escorts and cause unnecessary traffic for the rest of us.

I mean, if you are going to teach your kids about protecting environment wouldn't you start by showing them how to lessen their own individual carbon footprints???
