Perhaps.  But not for our times, if we want there to be polar bears or coral

Yes, not high enough to keep us from driving.  Myself included, of course, I
did drive 7000 miles in my van in the past three months.  Though that might
be enough to keep me out of the great excursion to Mexico in December - I
may have used up my greenhouse gas emissions quota for this year.

Uh, did that qualify as vanagon content? :-)
