@sinituulia years ago, i mentioned to an american friend that i was glad that i didn't have to go out for the next week (over christmas), and her jaw dropped. "i got out at least twice a day every day," she replied. "you know, to go to the store, and then i might go to the bank, and then i might go back to the store," and then here and there and she went on and on and. don't you ... combine journeys? to save money and time and the planet and.

no.

@moonrabbit @sinituulia a neighbour of mine used to drive into town to do their food shopping, then come back and unload, then drive to the recycling centre in the village with their glass and paper recycling. They had good intentions, but missed the point a bit.
