Ride motorbike la..Originally posted by Kuali Baba:Sheesh, shouldn't this be making you think about your driving habits instead? Throw out the unnecessary stuff in your car, inflate your tyres properly or switch to energy savers, drive smoothly, use less of the air-conditioning and walk a little more when you can...just to name a few.
At the rate we're using up fossil fuels, the situation is not likely to improve. Look out of your little bubble and at the bigger picture for once, and think about the environment FFS.

Carry on driving.

i 2nd that.. i had been riding bike in SG for nearly 15 years. one full tank cost $10 and will run for 200km.Originally posted by CannyOng:Ride motorbike la..
but u have to put up with the inconvenience and danger.
in fact, the govt should relax the criteria for motorbike passing and let the COE for <200cc bike be free. this way, lower income groups can have a manageable private transport to commute to work easily. -
Why put up with the trouble and expense of owning a car, when Singapore's highly efficient and eminently affordable "world class" public transit system is able to whiz you to any part of the island within 25 minutes in supine comfort?

Some people suggest that more workers should be allowed to work from home.
It's good. One of the companies that I worked for previously actually allow it's staff to bring work home. Eahc of them is given a laptop.
Don't hv to observe official hours.
Save office space
save on taxi claims when required to work late.
reduce traffic jams
save costs for both employer and staff
working mothers can look after the kids and run errands without having to take off or apply leave

With the rising oil prices, it's the oil conglomerates who are benefiting. Companies and nations are trying to obtain oil from the Artics, and this will not only cause more global warming, but also cause further damage to the ecosystem. Have people really understood the seriousness of the situation? Have everyone in the world start to react to this crisis? Will the oil comglomerates reduce their oil production? What's your opinion?
