While the flurry of activity around the climate stripes will peak on the 21 June, one unmissable adoption of the colourful graphic will be zooming around Reading for a lot longer.
The stripes for Berkshire will be painted onto a bus and hit the roads in the coming weeks thanks to a partnership between the University of Reading and Reading Buses.
The bus, one of Reading Buses’ natural gas-powered vehicles, will feature the stripes from wheel arches to roof for 12 months, printed on vinyl that will be recycled after use.
It will be used across different routes throughout this period, meaning everyone in Reading has a good chance of spotting the bus at some stage.
A message will be displayed inside the bus, stressing the importance of the stripes image and of partnerships to developing solutions to climate issues.
