Dartmouth’s Big Green Bus makes a Telluride stop during their Annual Cross-Country Road Trip:
The Bus will be on Colorado Ave, Monday from 11-3p.m.
The Big Green Bus: A Vehicle for Change
Taking the all-American road-trip to the next level, 15 Dartmouth College students embark on a cross-country summer adventure to educate America about sustainability and green living. Dartmouth’s Big Green Bus, once a rag-tag creation of the university’s engineering and ultimate Frisbee communities, is unveiling a coach bus specially-converted to run on waste vegetable oil. This year’s bus has been transformed into a state-of-the-art “green” mobile classroom for sustainable living, suited for the more than 40 educational stops planned across the country.
