Even buses are getting into green roofs...

Or, how a bus can become a mobile vegetable garden...

Bus Roots was born from the brilliant idea of a thesis student who made the following observation: in his city, there were 4500 buses (wow, the carbon emissions are significant), which would equate to 35 additional hectares of green space for the city if the roofs were developed.
The positive effects of these green buses include CO2 absorption and, above all, the reintroduction of green space (along with the small creatures that come with it) into the city.

Yes, but as much as I have a great passion for green roofs, because I find that they offer many advantages for a house, I have some questions about this... especially if it's transformed into a vegetable garden. Because, let's be honest, we're not in a utopia, and cars are not clean vehicles, so the food would be polluted... QED. However, if it's for ornamental plants, I'm all for it!
