This is a fantastic idea and huge step forward in the fight for consumer knowledge about environmental issues. Of course, most people know that electric and hybrid cars will be getting the highest grades, and that probably won't make the population have any real desire for the ars, but it's a step in the right direction. If all goes well, the Obama administration will definitely start gaining respect in the "Go Green" world of scientists and activists.
