If you’ve got a bit of a green thumb but you just can’t stop traveling, there’s one way to travel that lets you stay environmentally conscious without sacrificing your sense of adventure: the charter bus. It’s totally okay if you haven’t even thought about taking a bus before — many people haven’t, actually. But here are just a few reasons why the bus definitely deserves your attention.
First, bus companies are taking green initiatives to make their buses more environmentally-friendly than ever before. Charter buses use much less gas than other transportation methods (most notably planes), and because buses transport so many passengers at once, all of that gas required to transport people in their own individual cars is being saved.
Second, bus companies are constantly striving to make their buses even more economical; researchers haven’t stopped looking for new development just because buses are already very eco-friendly. Everything from electric-powered buses to fuel cell buses are being researched, and prototypes have already been developed which show a great deal of potential for these models.
Third, you don’t have to give up any modern comforts just because you’re taking a bus. (Okay, this point doesn’t really have anything to do with environmental consciousness, but it definitely doesn’t hurt to mention it.) Modern coach buses have tons of new facilities like on-board bathrooms and wi-fi connections, making your bus feel just as comfortable as home.
So there you have it — there’s really no need to give up your love of adventure just because you want to be more environmentally conscious. You may not have realized that charter buses are such great options for eco-friendly travel, but now you know that you shouldn’t ignore them any more!
