Building a billion toyota prius’ will not make the environment any better. Just the construction and transporting of them and there equipment will destroy the planet faster than any non hybrids or SUV’s

this is all window dressing. the total polution over the lifetime of an item should be what we are concerned with. solar panels, batteries dont come close to be sustainable as the operational lifetime is less (of minimal polution) than polution caused (both co2 and toxic chemicals) by creating and destroying it.

It still looks very dark inside the factory, even with all of their lighting.

Yeah. Toyotas are like watching grass grow. And they just made that even more boring.

The Realist, all can’t be beer and skittles as the JAPS are choosing to exit this world at a greater rate than anyone else.

Main difference is that Japs are extremely Nationalistic and many plebs lead miserable lives and still do to create the miracle.

Very impressed! I already knew about the green roof but not about the other things. Industious little people arn’t they. If only they can convince buyers to purchase more fuel efficient Toyotas and less large SUV Toyotas!

Thats a very smart idea. Although they would have to sell it under a different name as many people associate boredome with Toyota and i wouldnt want boring grass!

Why don’t ADM Prius have the larger 17 inch wheels? They make the Prius look actually very good.

Many people in Oz actually have no idea of Japan’s philosophies since WW2.

If only some of the plebs we elect would have an iota of vision and leadership.
