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
Sorry… you think there is no issue with children breathing diesel fumes?
Probably not a good idea for them to suck on the tailpipe but diesel busses are like the most common type of bus and they don’t pump the exhaust into the cabin. So unless busses in the US do that or kids like the taste of tailpipe I don’t see how that is even happening.
Because they stand next to the bus and wait in a line to get on while inhaling the fumes.
Are you saying school busses in the US are like a fog rolling into town or something? Because I’m having a hard time picturing how kids can have enough exposure to diesel fumes the way you described it works or how petrol fumes aren’t an even bigger issue since they are waiting near a car road. Also having regular busses would reduce petrol and diesel fumes they breath in while waiting anyways if it works the way you describe.
