Odd Earth Day Suggestion

By matangmanok

Just a quick  one.  This morning a representative from an environmental group was on the radio giving out suggestions for Earth Day.  She rattled of the usual things like share a ride, change to energy-saving lightbulbs, etc.  But then her last suggestion took me aback.

She said if you are buying plane tickets ask the airline to charge you the extra fee for the environmental clean-up work that airlines do.  Duh?
