Eco friendly

I’ve decided I’m not going to tell my vegan, cycling friend that I have bought a Tesla.
My other middle class wannabe greenie friends think it’s a sign of my real eco-credentials – but she’ll see through that straight away. Of course it would be far better for the planet if I’d stuck with my old car, or even given up car ownership altogether, as she and her husband have done. But, I ask you, how am I going to get my dogs to the beach house every weekend without a car?? I think people need to learn to put themselves in other people’s shoes sometimes.
