Do you think buses should go ''Green"?

Question

aslo school buses.

see living in a city with a lot of nearby schools and transportation. i started wondering.

what do you think.

Answer 1

They are already way more green than if all the passengers drove their own personal vehicles. But yeah sure why not? Propane buses work pretty well in Acadia National Park. Bio-diesel would be good too.

Answer 2

yeh i think it could be helpful.. but maybe using diff colors for public and school buses are much better.

Answer 3

absolutely!!!  in fact they do have solar powered buses in Adelaide!...

"The Adelaide City Council has raised the standard in International sustainability with the introduction of the world’s first solar-powered electric bus.

It is recharged using 100% solar energy"

Answer 4

Are we willing to pay the cost of all these things or are we going to complain about the bad business people charging so much.

Answer 5

yeah, but not the color, only the engine
