An announcement of an event built around a restored Routemaster bus, which the publication planned to tour around London carrying talks and activities intended to get passengers talking to each other.

The stated premise was social rather than environmental: the awkwardness of public transport as a shared space, and what to do about seeing someone you might want to speak to. The climate argument sat underneath and went unstated.

Published in July 2010. A London listings site links to this address. Whether the tour happened is not established by anything in this archive, which holds the announcement but no follow up.
