I'm a senior at a highschool in Oklahoma, and we are comparing 6 states responses to 6 different questions for an Environmental Science project. It would be incredibly helpful if i could get some responses from Long Island residents. Thank you all so much

1) if you own a car, how many miles per gallon does it recieve?
2)If any, how many energy efficient appliances do you own?
3)Do you use reusable or plastic bags at the grocery store?
4)Do you recycle?
5)Do you believe that climate change/global warming is a hoax?
6)Do you believe that oil companies use their power to halt the development of alternative energies

Why don't you get some context by asking people how many miles they drive per year? I have a large vehicle that's just OK on gas, but I only drive about 4000 miles per year.
