Why do people make environmental choices?
Because it's the smart thing to do, or simply because it's the cool thing to do?
Thirty six percent of Prius owners bought that particular car because of it's fuel saving ability. For them, it was a smart thing to do.
However, 57 percent of Prius owners bought that particular because "because it makes a statement". In other words... it was the cool thing to do. All the other environmentalists are doing it, so why shouldn't I?
Good question.
Instead of thinking, and making responsible choices, the sheep mentality of far too many people today just leads them to make whatever decision everyone else is making. Any idea pushed in their face must obviously be a good one, so they go ahead and jump right in too.

Yes they are not the only answer in fact electric vehicles are a better and more long term solution.
Exactly. Hybrids rely on fossil fuels, and as long as they do, they're no better than anything else on the road. Electric and renewable bio-fuel powered cars are where development money should be spent.
