More of us need to jump on the bus to make the B-C government’s green plans become a reality.

It says reducing emissions by the government’s planned 33 per cent requires making cars more efficient and at least doubling transit capacity. TransLink says the cost of doubling transit capacity would cost billions of dollars.
