Does anyone else worry about the gorilla in the closet about this hobby? On any given day, there can be tens of thousands of geocachers, burning up gallons upon gallons of gasoline as they drive from cache to cache. I know cachers who literally drive all day long from cache to cache. Power trails are often done with one person remaining in the car (idling = more polution), while the other person finds/signs. I like the concept of geocaching, but as an environmentalist, I just can't justify the burning up of our precious earth driving from cache to cache. So I limit my caching to caches that are enroute or near where I am already going, or to ones that I can bike or walk to. I wonder what others think about this, and how we might be able to make this a greener hobby. Everyone can't afford an electric car.
