Electric school buses are a breath of fresh air for children | Nearly $1B in federal funding could help clean up the unequal health impacts of diesel pollution.::Nearly $1B in federal funding will help decarbonize transportation and clean up some of the unequal health impacts of diesel pollution
Why not just make normal public transit? Like school busses aren’t a thing here so I took the regular bus to school like everyone else, it’s a lot more versatile too since people can take it to more places.
School busses don’t have adult strangers and other issues tied to them. They only go from people’s homes to school and back.
What issues do adult strangers cause? And what are the other issues? Also legs work pretty good to get to a bus station, I hear kids have those.
that doesn’t fix the toxic diesel pollution does it?
Did you know that regular buses also come in electrical variants?
Even more shockingly: So do trams and metros.
Neither do school busses since only kids take those. If like most people took the bus instead of drove that would help immensely even if it was the most polluting bus ever.
um wtf? We all wearing gas masks or something? You realise diesel fumes are toxic to people right? Kids catching buses spewing toxic gas is not a good situation. I think you’re focusing on the climate changing issue of pollution and not the pressing issue, which is the toxic fumes that come from diesel buses.
What kind of weird busses do you have in the states? Most busses (And a large amount of cars) here run on diesel and have no such issue.
