Staten Island Ferry Goes Green!!!

Happy New Year, may it be a GREEN NEW YEAR!  I read this article in the Daily News and it talks about converting the ferries from Diesel fuel to a liquified natural gas that costs 23 to 43 cents a gallon.  If we have this ability why aren't we doing this with other means of transportation?  Think of how much it would reduce fuel costs of buses or planes.  And it's cleaner and better for the environment.  It sounds like it should be obvious.  The MTA wants another fare hike, how about looking into something that would help their bottom line, keep some money in our pockets and help preserve the environment.

But at least the Ferry is a start, even if they are only converting one ferry at this time.  So now what are you gonna do?
