"In metropolitan areas around the globe, public transportation is going
greener. Many cities are working towards eliminating greenhouse gas emissions
by transitioning away from fossil fuels — which are responsible for roughly 75%
of climate warming GHGs — to renewable energy, and electrifying bus fleets is a
priority.
Diesel exhaust from fossil fuel-powered buses contributes to poor air quality
in cities, resulting in particulate pollution and the production of ground
level ozone. According to Environmental America, replacing all diesel-powered
transit buses in the country would eliminate over 2 million tons of GHG
emissions every year. Luckily, as technology improves, electric buses are
becoming a more feasible option for cities and school districts, with buses
operable in different temperatures and topographic areas.
These five cities are among the many paving the way toward electric powered
public transit for all."
