Waitin' For The Bus?


From the people that brought you solar powered bicycles --

Solar bus tour making stop in Cedar Falls, Waterloo

Oh wait, it's not what it reads like and the scientific community is united in that fact.

David Osterberg and his Iowa Policy Project (IPP),
the Iowa Environmental Council (which the IPP is a member of) and the Environmental Law and Policy Center are polluting the state with their tour raising awareness of solar energy on this cloudy, snowy day.

I'd be more impressed if they were driving Tindo, the bus pictured is said to be 100% solar powered.

However it really isn't, as this bus still has to be plugged in due to a lack of available roof space to hold the huge number of solar panels necessary to independently charge it.
