Plenty of choices for greener living

Re: “Changing your lifestyle won’t spare you from Alberta’s carbon tax,” Paige MacPherson, June 10

Sometimes, driving is a frivolous luxury. If you drive less, you’ll save money.

I happily pay my taxes and I’m a senior on a modest fixed income. Fourteen dollars on a $40 tank of gas? Peanuts.

Suggesting the SUV be traded in for a Smart car is silly. There are many other more fuel-efficient choices for vehicles that will easily accommodate three children.

Changing one’s lifestyle isn’t only realistic, it is essential.

Failure to do so may well result in our fate equalling that of the Neanderthal. Fred Lewis, Medicine Hat
