Green Travel – School Bus
Last week the bus
driver came to our classroom to talk about how green the bus is. He told us
lots of interesting facts about the bus.
Did you know that
thirty five cars are the same as one bus and its fifty four cents to go on the
bus and one euro to drive your car? The speed is 81 kilometres and there are
fifty one seats.
Another green way to
travel is to car-pool. Car-pooling is where you bring friends in your car
instead of both driving separately eg. You could bring someone to school with
you.

Going to school by bus is very green
.The bus is like carpooling but it has more seats. The school bus has fifty-one
seats. Carpooling is fine but the bus is better. Going on the bus means less
pollution .The experience on the bus is even a bit exciting.
Thirty to thirty-five cars are the
same as one bus. So if at least twenty people are on one bus it’s a lot of
pollution gone.
Did you know that it’s one euro to go
in a car and fifty-four cent for the bus? So if you have a bus ticket, please
use it and even if you don’t have a bus ticket please spare fifty-four cent to
go by bus. It would save a lot of pollution.
