  • I've been taking the bus to work the past few weeks and leaving my car home :-) Does that count?
  • Why? It won't do any good. You'll have to buy gas the next day or the day after. The boycott will not cost them any money. A better boycott is to work from home or carpool for a few days.
  • You and every other American will need to cut down on consumption on 4 July, then follow up and do it again on the 5th, and 6th, and 7th, and habits will need to change. Public transport will have to be used, electric consumption will have to be curbed, plastics will need to be recycled... the laws of economics dictate that one day of protest isn't going to do anything to the price of retail petrol. Change your habits. Get your friends to change their habits, then you will create impact that will last.
  • To make an effective stance, you need a valid point and one day wont make a difference, esp on our independence day...but one random weekend say friday-mon would...but you would need everyone to be on your side, inclusive of the rich and the poor
