Technology has its own ways of being weird and creative that many people though might see it as crazy,stupid and unrealistic,helps solve day to day problems and issues.Technology is dynamic and fast changing,issues such as cost saving,reliability,performance and efficiency being its main objectives.All scientists and innovators aim to create products or services that will make life easier and simple,  save lots of time and resources.

Many of you might be wondering why i had to write an article on a “poop bus”,but its quite notable such technology might have been heard by no one including me till today.Uk residents will now have a cheaper though kinda weird means of transport around their cities and places after the first Biogas Bus  finally had its final touches and would be ready for economical use this week or early next week.

The U.K.’s first “bio-bus” is powered by biomethane gas, which is generated through the treatment of sewage.With a full tank, the bus can travel up to 186 miles, while producing up to 30% fewer emissions compared to diesel-powered buses.The eco-friendly bus started regular service on Monday and is expected to carry around 10,000 passengers a month between the Bristol airport and the historic town of Bath.

“The bus is powered by people living in the local area, including quite possibly those on the bus itself,” said Mohammed Saddiq from Geneco, the company that runs the sewage treatment facility providing the fuel.

The biggest worry about the “biogas” bus is how the passengers seats are designed not forgetting other factors such as its airborne air conditioning mechanisms and technology.So does the driver too drive around the big machine while doing the “other” business?
