Your Green Life: Smart Car

Here is the story I did in Duluth, MN about our Smart car's. I had to focus on the green aspect, and I wanted to make it positive...of course. The video will be online later.

Here is the link:

Cool, thanks for posting it Jeff!

On a side note, does anyone know where the "the car is made from 95% recycled materials" quote can be backed up? I've never seen that figure before, not that I'd looked, and would like to read up on it.

Thanks!

"Simply by purchasing this vehicle, smart fortwo owners have already played an active role in supporting the environment. In addition to great fuel economy, the smart fortwo is up to 95% recyclable, and is certified as a SmartWay vehicle for its low air pollutant and greenhouse gas scores by the Environmental Protection Agency. The smart fortwo leaves a small carbon footprint on the American landscape."
