Honda FCX: What a Gas! A Week in Suburbia With a Hydrogen Honda

I know this might seem a bit out of context, but stay with me. Aren't we called to be good stewards of what we've been given? People tend to put stewardship in the context of money, but it certainly applies equally—maybe even more importantly—to the world around us. A zero-emission vehicle would be the ultimate in good stewardship toward this earth we've been charged with caring for. Subdue doesn't mean consume, but command. One can choose to command justly, or not.
In the introduction of his book "Caring for Creation: Responsible Stewardship of God's Handiwork, by Calvin B. DeWitt (Baker Books and the Center for Public Justice, 1998)." Calvin DeWitt describes the vision that drove him to write the book. It was an image of humanity standing at the judgement seat of God, their hands dripping with oil and chemical waste, their feet crusted with concrete and asphalt. And God asks the simple question, "What did you do with the garden I loaned you?"
