I think we need to try and determine which is better for the Earth (or less bad) ... riding in a bus that Irving owns, or in several small vans which are inevitably burning gas from an Irving refinery, possibly driving on Irving tires, etc. I say "inevitable" because my understanding -- and i welcome contradiction -- is that most of the gas in this part of the world originates in Nigeria and is refined by Irving. Is that false? At any rate, we could look at it as a win-win situation. In a bus or in a van, at least we're being more efficient than being alone in a car. And don't forget: two things that KC Irving does not own are the train and my bicycle :) ~paul :) On Wed, 3 Mar 1999, jan m wrote: > > hi > > some very good points raised, and i have a thought to add to the discussion > . . . > > >... and unregulated vans in Nova Scotia and P.E.I. are driving interurban > >buses into bankruptcy. > > well, i do feel sorry for any smaller local owned bus routes still > surviving, but personally i would opt for taking a small buisness shuttle > at less cost over irving- owned- lets- move- all- the- bus stops- to- > irving- stations acadia lines any day. > > cheers, jan ~ -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- You received this because you are subscribed to "sust-mar", the Sustainable Maritimes mailing list.
