What's Your Carfun Footprint?

Mini Cooper is running a new ad campaign with the title "What's your carfun footprint?" Their play on words is used to illustrate their efforts to produce a car that is both fun to drive and gets good gas mileage (37 mpg city, not too shabby) thereby reducing your carbon footprint.

Another effort to create a car that is both fast and energy efficient is being undertaken at UVM by their Alternative Energy Racing Organization with Operation GreenSpeed. They are preparing a race car for entry in the annual International Formula-Hybrid competiton.

See you there!
