    This is pretty cool! Build Your Dreams (BYD), a China-based electric vehicle manufacturer, has launched a video of the world’s largest electric bus fleet, which will be delivered to Shenzhen City in the Guangdong province. At the current rate of growth, all of China’s buses will be electric by the mid 2020s.

    Thanks for sharing! This is great news in a country with so many people. I don't know much about public transportation in China, but from what I see in popular culture I feel as though the rest of the world is ahead of the U.S. in making public transportation easy and the norm. With all electric buses on the road this will hopefully improve China's air pollution rates as well. I know that at the recent summit in Paris all the major industrial nations made huge promises to improve their nations emissions. I'm wondering how a company like this may benefit from the government at a time when the new "space race" might be a race for a greener nation.
