Re: green power (Score:1)
Hm, while we've got a regular contract with our local power dealer (electricity and gas (for heating and cooking)), at least the electricity should be mostly "green" (i.e. C02 neutral). Most of the power in Austria is generated by water power plants.
:-)
I haven't got a car (or a driving license...) and do nearly all of my daily traveling on my bike (about 50km per week, most of the year (unless it's raining very heavily or there is fresh snow on the streets). The rest is done with public transport.
I try to avoid airplanes and very much prefere trains (especially overnight-trains). Unfortunatly the last few YAPC::Europes where very hard to reach by train (from Austria). But the next one (2007) will be easy
Oh, on a related note, we had national elections a few weeks ago, after which the Green party turned out 4th with only a few votes behind the rightwing antiforeigners FPÖ. Now they finished counting all the votes (namly those from Austrians living abroad), with the final result that the Green party is 3rd (11%) (with ~500 (~0.01%) more voters than the FPÖ). Yay!
