I know we won't be doing the atmosphere any favors by driving cross-country,
but we'd like to limit the damage as much as we can. Does it matter where we
stop for gas along the way? Is one brand of pumping station better than
another?<o:p></o:p></span></font></i></b></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>It's true that driving coast-to-coast
is going to produce some heavy carbon emissions, but there are some ways to
reduce your impact on the environment. You can save energy, for example, by
keeping your windows closed—and your A/C on—as you coast down the
highway. When you stop to refuel, don't bother getting high-octane gas if your
vehicle isn't designed to use it. And, as you suggest in your question, try to
avoid the pump stations run by the world's nastiest corporate villains.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>No fossil fuel company has a clean
record when it comes to the environment. Drilling, transporting, and refining
oil produces massive amounts of greenhouse gas. The industry also pollutes the
air with soot and other chemicals, and as we've seen in recent weeks, companies
like BP end up releasing tons of hazardous waste into oceans and streams. Even
so, some companies are more diligent about their environmental responsibilities
than others. Activist groups have made an attempt to rank the major oil companies
according to their records; see, for example, the lists compiled by Greenopia,
Sierra Club, and the Better World Handbook. While Greenopia's list is the most
up-to-date, it includes both the ubiquitous "supermajor" oil
companies (like ExxonMobil and Chevron) and smaller refiners whose gas stations
might be harder to find. To simplify things, let's separate out the big and the
small, and focus on the two metrics that should be first in your mind when
you're about to fill up your tank: the amount of oil spilled by each company
and the amount of CO2 emitted per barrel of production.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
