Runaway Prius halted by police - CBC The National

Submitted by sweetbomb on March 10, 2010 - 3:15am

Ahhhhhhhh, the light at the end of the highway, the saviour of the planet's atmosphere with headlights full of glory is running away with folks. The 'king car' has turned on it's not so humble worshippers scaring old and young alike long after they felt proud about the elitism of the sticker price. For the privilege of proclaiming, "yes I am an eco-nut Prius driver", now also comes the enhanced comfortable feeling that taking their lives in their hands every time they drive a Prius is to feel especially selected for the above and beyond call of duty by a car. Take the capital 'P' off and let her rust with the Model T in the back pasture. Let the birds and the bugs, the mice and the meadow grasses make their home in a place more safe for them than humans.

Supporting the Message

Atraction's action communities are created to help people plug-in and engage after seeing our films. Help us continue our work and support the message by buying our DVDs, T-shirts or other cool things related to our films. The films we make are created to raise awareness and help foster change around issues of the environment, social justice, consciousness, health and well-being. With each film we launch and action community and conduct educational tours of the film to universities and schools. We also create teaching materials that help people dive deeper into the subject. By purchasing a DVD, or other things, you help spread the message.

Purpose

The purpose of this website is to inspire people to take action. We encourage people to take action at home and in their communities. On this social action website, you will see thousands of examples of what people have chosen to do to make the world a better place. We believe that when people see what other people are doing, it helps them take action too. So we ask that you open a profile, and tell us what action you are doing, perhaps you are going to plant a vegetable garden, or you are going to help start a recycling program at school, whatever it is, let us know and tell us how it's going. You can post videos, pictures and statements. If you need inspiration, check and see what people have done by looking on the action map or joining a group that has already started. Together, step by step, action by action, we can create a healthy and just world.

Take Action

Stop talking. Now is the time. Take action here.
