Bill Nye the Science Guy Wants You!

gas hater · 02-14-2006, 02:54 PM

From a surfing website I belong to:

Bill Nye the Science Guy here. As a member of the Union of Concerned Scientists and also a hybrid owner, I was excited when I was asked to introduce you to the UCS HybridCenter!

www.HYBRIDCENTER.ORG is the place to go for information about hybrid vehicles. It combines scientifically-sound, solution-oriented research with comprehensive consumer information, helping drivers and policymakers alike separate hybrid fact from fiction.

We need your help to make the HybridCenter a real “vehicle for change.” So send your valentine to the planet by joining in our HybridCenter Earth Day Challenge!

Here's how hybrid owners, and everyone who cares about clean car solutions, can join me in the fun:

# 1000 Hybrids by Earth Day: If you’re a Hybrid owner, come join me on the HybridCenter’s “Who’s Got Hybrids?” feature—a collection of pictures and testimonials from hybrid owners around the nation. Our goal is 1000 hybrid owners on the site by Earth Day—April 22. CLICK HERE

http://www.hybridcenter.org/owners/whos-go...ids-upload.html

to join in, and get a free “Cool Car—Cool Planet” static cling window sticker (even better than mine because you can put it anywhere—and no glue!)

# Join the HybridCenter Driving Change Network: It’s not just for hybrid owners, folks. Driving Change Network members will receive special HybridCenter updates, action alerts, and opportunities to make the world a better place and have some fun doing it!
So click away, friends, and let’s make this Earth Day a celebration of clean vehicle technologies, consumer power, and their potential, together, to help our planet.

Sincerely,

Bill Nye

Waiting for my sticker~

I joined too...what's funny is that not 5 minutes before I saw Bill Nye on CNN with his new wife and they were talking about how he'd just gotten married.

Allannde · 02-14-2006, 04:10 PM

I also joined

If you look around, you'll see the virtues of a PHEV being mentioned... and then in other places, Nye is holding a yellow extension cord and extolling the virtues of NOT having to plug it in. He sounds down-right giddy that his lovely car only burns gasoline. And goes onto say that's the best way to get good gas mileage AND save the planet.

Grrr.

I'm in!!!

I'd like to join but the link site went dead on me. After the link to the site on Bill's email failed to connect, I copied and pasted and tried to run it direct from my server; stlll nothing.

p.s. anything about solar homes on this site or is it all about hybrid cars?

Catskillguy · 02-14-2006, 08:10 PM

In too! (But do I want to put the sticker on my baby?????)

badaka · 02-14-2006, 09:15 PM

Moi aussi

Joined. And posted the link on the PriusclubSD.com website.

1000 by Earth Day?

Piece of cake.

But I really wish they had a counter of some kind on the website where you could see how many hybrids have registered. I looked and couldn't find one.

And someone should invite Bill Nye, as a prius owner, to join us here at Priuschat.
