Big Blue Climate Change Bus
The Climate Change Bus rolls again -
Bring it to your school or community this Summer!
FBC launched the Climate Change Bus in 2003. Since then the BIG
BLUE Climate Change and Education Team have traveled to schools and
conferences from Moncton to Tobique First Nation.
The bus is an exciting interactive museum on wheels. Interactive,
hands-on displays in the bus demonstrate how energy efficiency and
renewable energy can mitigate climate change and become an important part
of North America’s sustainable energy future.
Visitors will experiment with different types of energy efficient light
bulbs and showerheads and learn about innovative methods of energy
conservation. Fuelled with bio-diesel and complete with 700 Watts of
combined wind and photovoltaic power, the Climate Change Bus is an
exciting showcase of renewable energy solutions.
The Climate Change Bus will be traveling to communities throughout
Atlantic Canada stopping at schools, colleges, universities, town fairs,
trade shows, community events, and just about everywhere where people are
gathering.
