The  Climate Change Bus Tour, a joint project of The Teva Learning Center and Hazon,  is now in its final leg of the their cross-country tour!

It has been an incredible journey so far. Hundreds of Jewish students, teachers, and families have engaged with environmental education programs and activities. Many have also signed the Jewish Climate Change pledge committing themselves to sustainable action and advocacy.

Check out the latest video of the bus tour’s Chanukah out west and the latest press in The Jewish Exponent.

The Topsy-Turvy bus is equipped with a vermicompost system (worm bins), a human powered bicycle generator, solar ovens and a centrifuge system to convert used vegetable oil to fuel. Partnered with Teva and Hazon on this, is MASA Israel Journey which recently launched its Go Green in Israel Campaign to encourage Jews, aged 18 to 30 to take a year “on” and prepare themselves for the new green American economy by interning, volunteering or studying in Israel for five to 12 months.

As I write this post, the bus is running a program in Scottsdale, Arizona and then it will be heading to California, ending at the Hazon Food Conference on December 24th. See more updates, pictures, and videos of the tour by visiting the tour’s blog and become of the tour on facebook.
