This post from Edie describes how the bus industry's confederation has agreed that every bus purchased from 2025 must be low or zero emission. This rather begs the question "Why wait until 2025?". The technology is available - just do it!
There is also a caveat noting that "the right support from Government" will be required. Oh yes? What's that? You and me funding a subsidy?
The post also points out that nothing was said about free transport schemes. We have experienced free bus services in Perth and Melbourne - excellent.
Come on guys - use a bit of imagination.
Jottings from SW Surrey. This used to be mainly about energy but now I've retired it's just an old man's rant. From 23 June 2016 'til 12 December 2019 Brexit dominated but that is now a lost cause. So, I will continue to point out the stupidities of government when I'm so minded; but you may also find the odd post on climate change, on popular science or on genealogy - particularly my own family.
