Cars & Global warming: Does anyone care?

Foreign oil dependency fighter

Hybrid cars, such as the Toyota Prius, are extremely clean and loved by numerous greens. Hybrids, such as the Prius, are also loved by national security hawks whom realize that if every American drove a vehicle as efficient as the Prius, America could end foreign oil dependency.

While some Americans argue about the reality of man-made CO2 caused global warming, few can argue that foreign oil dependency is not a significant threat to national security. Fortunately, however, fighting foreign oil dependency, inevitably, also fights global warming.

Perhaps, at least in the very near term, it would be better for greens to focus on foreign oil dependency, rather than global warming, at least when it comes to automobiles?
