Philippine's e-jeepney
The route of this e-jeepney is called the "Makati Heritage Route". This e-jeepney is very environment friendly. Since unlike the typical jeepney which is run by gasoline or diesel that emits harmful gases in the atmosphere. This jeepney is run by electricity, it is charged for 6 hours and can run 150 kilometers and can carry at most 15 passengers.
The Philippine is facing extreme challenge with regards to climate change. Climate change mitigation measures such as this jeepney is very essential to somehow reduce our emission of harmful gases in the atmosphere.
Major cities around the world are the users of the 70% of the worlds resources as well as the major emitters of pollutant. strong political leadership such as this - introducing a cleaner and greener way of living-. this efforts must be imitated by other cities and even municipalities. to strengthen our weapon in our plight against Climate Change.
