In support of their documentary film Freedom, Venice residents Josh and Rebecca Tickell have hit the road in a 40 foot E85 ethanol fuel powered bus with 19 solar panels and a high tech mobile learning lab for a 3 and a half month 50 city tour. Also along for the ride is Venetian Boise Thomas as “tour captain”.
The goal of the trip is to educate America on advanced biofuels and their positive roles to boost the economy, create jobs, and decrease foreign oil dependency. During the trip, the film makers will be updating on twitter as well as doing “freedom drive” webisodes (the first of which you can watch above) which can be seen by clicking here.
