When most people think of ground travel, they do not immediately think “earth-friendly.” But the truth is, motorcoach travel is one of the most ecological modes of transportation that exists.
According to a recent study by the American Busing Association Foundation (ABA), motorcoaches are the greenest way to travel.
The study, which evaluated the environmental impacts of different modes of transportation, found that every motorcoach “has the potential to displace 55 less-efficient cars.” It also found that motorcoaches are “seven times more efficient than travel by car.” A family that chooses motorcoach travel over even a hybrid car will cut their carbon emissions nearly in half.
The study also found that “one gallon of fuel can provide more than 200 passenger miles on a motorcoach” making it even more efficient than travel by train or plane.
If you’re looking to travel in the most ecologically efficient way – motorcoach travel is your answer.
Think of traveling by motorcoach like traveling in a large carpool. By reducing the number of cars on the roads you can reduce each individual’s carbon footprint.
