Fergie is auctioning off her Hummer to help go green
AutoblogGreen is reporting that Black Eyed Peas front woman Fergie is getting rid of her Humer
maybe the Live Earth concerts actually opened her mind to the nonsense that is driving a HUMMER. We’ve heard that Fergie auctioned her HUMMER and donated the money a carbon-neutral group (although wouldn’t you think this sort of thing would be mentioned on something like Ecorazzi or TMZ, don’t you? No dice). But auctioning off your HUMMER is not exactly the greenest thing Fergie could do.
I’m going to have to agree here, I don’t see the how this is making her green. Someone is going to win this thing and drive it around, so there is no real green anything going on. If she agreed to crush it or something, then I’d be impressed. The top bid is a little more than $64,000 right now with 2 days left. At least some charity is going to get a check for some cash, but I’m not sold on this concept, pardon the pun.

I agree. Crush the thing and recycle the metals and other parts! I drive a pickup truck 20 miles each way to work but it gets at least 18 MPG. Not great, but I actually use it for a pickup regularly. That Hummer’s never been off pavement, much less off-road!
I bet she could raise more money by letting environmentalists destroy the thing with a sledgehammer. I’d pay $10 to whack at it for 5 minutes!
