Perhaps unusually for classic car enthusiasts, at Go Drive Classics we're more tree huggers than petrol heads. So how to square the contradiction the gasoline we consume and emissions we create
Go Drive Classics is concerned about our environment and seeks to minimize our impact on fit in everything we do. We offset our carbon missions by contributing to nameorg, and we try to source parts locally, where possible, and where that's not possible we look for parts and tools from supply chains that are free of exploited labor or environmental degradation. The automotive industry is a bit of a bleak landscape as far as environmental stewardship goes. Its symbiotic relationship with the oil industry has conpromised its ability to aggresively pursue energy for renewable sources, and the oil industry itself, which our busness supports has a very checkered record when it comes to environmental stewardship.
Based on the Sierra Club's recommendation we use Sunoco gasoline to fill our cars.
We could blab on about how keeping these cars on the road is in itself an act of preservation. We believe in not in increased consumption, but in selective consumption and of repair and maintenance of the things we own. We rather subscribe the cyclical patterns of nature than the rather arriviste notion of western civilization that we are on an upward and onward trajectory of continual improvment, ever increasing consumption, based on an
inexhaustable supply of raw materials and being fed into a bottomles garbage can that renders our waste invisible and performs a rite of virtuous cleansing that frees us to continue on a fresh binge of consumption.
