As an FYI, the website (http://www.whatwouldjesusdrive.com/) does not appear to have anything to do with the campaign... instead their website is at http://www.whatwouldjesusdrive.org
Here is an excerpt of their pledge taken from their website:
"Pollution from cars hurts people and the rest of God's creation. Driving impacts human health, contributes to global warming, and increases our reliance on oil from unstable countries and environmentally sensitive areas. Making transportation choices that threaten millions of human beings violates Jesus' basic commandments: "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mk. 12:30-31); and "Do to others as you would have them do to you" (Lk. 6:31). In making my transportation choices with the Risen Lord Jesus, I believe He wants me to travel in ways that reduce pollution and consumption of gasoline."
Just thought I'd share some additional information about the movement for those that are interested in knowing more about it and haven't paid attention to the various news reports and TV spots...
Still debating which SUV I should buy... and how I could afford the gas given my hour commute each direction...

PS- And I won't get into the stage of moral development implied by the use of the term "environmental wacko student"...
