Help make a Green Bus / Ajude a fazer um Ônibus Verde

I'm looking for people who want to experience South America, help the poor, and live and travel in a sustainable bus.

I have friends involved in BioTour, a traveling sustainability education non-profit. They modified a bus to run on vegetable oil, which they recycle from restaurants. I want to do the same-- and, collect a share of energy from the sun too, as they do.

Half of the bus would be for us. The other half would have services for poor villages. That could include facilities for basic medical care, internet access, and the opportunity for people to record their stories and be heard.

I also want to just travel around South America in an interesting and fun living arrangement. I think I can make it work for a fraction of the cost of hostel-stays and commercial bus travel.

Talk to me at the World Social Forum, Belém! Here are the signs I'll be using:
