Roundtable Discussion on School Bus Electrification in Nova Scotia

Hosted by Ecology Action Centre (EAC), in partnership with For Our Kids. 

Presenters: Thomas Arnason McNeil, Climate Policy Coordinator with the Ecology Action Centre and Natalie Caine, organizer with For Our Kids.

As part of the first phase of our electric school bus initiative, this roundtable discussion will include a short presentation on the work of the EAC on school bus electrification thus far, as well as some of the benefits and challenges presented by the electrification of Nova Scotia's school bus fleet. The presentation will be followed by a discussion, prompted through several discussion questions. We hope to understand the perspectives of various stakeholders on this issue, and to improve our ability to address concerns of the public as we advocate for change.

If you're a parent, guardian or grandparent in Nova Scotia and would like to attend and/or see more electric school buses on the roads of your province, please email: [email protected].
