That made me laugh out loud in the literal sense of the phrase
This is the propaganda I can get behind.
And with trolleybuses powered on a renewable grid, it's zero gallons!
Or maybe tell bosses that if your job can be done remotely it should be done remotely. Then there's more room on the bus for people who need to be in meatspace to do their jobs.
If only bosses were open to persuasion.
VPN uses 0 gallons.

Recently visited York (UK) and they have a fantastic bus system - and they're electric.
Busses in my city are also going electric. So far only the local routes. The longer distance routes are still diesel
Ah, you should see buses in my city. Dirty, thirty years old, overpopulated graves on wheels with no air conditioners.
Never again.
Then start campaigning for better public infrastructure.
with no air conditioners.
