One Less Hummer Logo

What?
Our campaign encourages individuals and organizations to make responsible decisions about transportation choices and the promotion of those choices. While large trucks may have a utilitarian role in our society, we believe that large SUVs designed primarily for low occupancy passenger use are not a responsible form of transportation.


Vehicles such as the Hummer consume more resources and emit much more pollution than other  transportation choices that could serve the same purpose


Why?
There are many reasons to choose transportation options that use less fossil fuels. These reasons include global climate change, the health affects of air pollution, the decline of fossil fuel resources, sprawl and the wars that are fought for oil.

Past Projects:

SUCESS! Our first project has convinced the BC Cancer Foundation to stop promoting Hummers in its annual "Lifestyles Lottery." On April 6th, 2004 the BC  Cancer Foundation informed us that they woud NOT offer a Hummer in their lottery this year.

We thought that it was especially worrisome for a cancer foundation to be promoting a vehicle that produces five times as much pollution as the average car when there is a clear link between vehicular pollution and cancer.

Thank you to everyone who contacted the BC Cancer Foundation and signed our petitions.  Special thanks to Kathryn Molloy of the Sierra Club, the SkyFish Project and SEFAC Foundation.

Look for a new project in the futre (or send us a suggestion).

It looks like we also helped convince Deakin Equipment to trade their hummer in for a Smart car.
