A number of auto companies, including Mercedes, Honda, Citroen and Think, reportedly provided a few dozen electric and alternative fuel vehicles—but those primarily are for demonstration.Yaneto

The presidents car isnt a green car and ofcourse they need to have protection with it, when they drive.

I think it's simple:
make a low-weight hybrid car (maybe getz or prius) and find a few ways to charge it like: while stopping, receiving energy from sun, recharging batteries that receives energy from inner movement of the car. I've heard that best cameras 2011 will recharge their batteries while shutting mirror and other inner movements due to frictions which will electrify surfaces that will accumulate an electric charge. Low weight will allow to save some energy. There are some mechanisms (like in modern mechanical watches) that makes more friction while moving. I believe it would provide absolutely rechargeable system for modern cars. However, if power is out it may use gas for a short while before it recharge own batteries.

“And NO… we do not want the president of the United States riding a bicycle on the public roadways in Copenhagen, while we are combating terrorist in two wars.” True!

Brazil is already doing it. Brazil has cut its oil consumption 50%. When you buy regular gas in Brazil, you are actually getting 22-25% ethanol. Most cars are flex fuel and can use Alcool, 85% ethanol. Newer versions can run on 100% hydrous ethanol(straight from the still, no blending needed)—or compressed natural gas—-or any of the above. With the Fiat Siena Tetrafuel, consumers can chose petroleum gas(for trips outside Brazil or Argentina), 25% Brazilian regular(if the price of gasoline is low, or CNG or ethanol is not available)——hydrous ethanol—-or methane, made by treating sewage and mixed with fossil natural gas.

40000 tons of CO2 for people who travel in limos. They finally did not achieve anything. This world is surely going to face huge natural disasters. Instead of coming in cars..why can’t they come in a bus or a cycle. There is nothing wrong in that.

Living proof that governments (at least, ours) will not lead us or manage us out of this crisis, and they will not provide a good example to follow.

I wonder how many Earths it would take to support a planetful of our government leaders.

I find it laughable in the extreme to call Copenhagen NOT green. They may not have imported so called Green Cars, but no Green Car, is as green as a bicycle.
Since 37% of people in copenhagen ride bikes to work or study in copenhagen, one could hardly say Copenhagen is not a green city. As I said, no Green Car, is as green as a bicycle. Other countries dont even have 37% of trips done with green car, so how is Copenhagen not green. Get rid of bloody cars. Why dont people look around copenhaged in the non winter months and you will see one of the answers to climate change, and obesity, and air pollution, on the streets beofre your eyes.

The article is right though on the poiunt that, if leaders want to show they are green ride a bike in the bicycle capital of the world.
