Flygbussarna – 50 Cars or one Bus

4 05 2009

Flygbussarna, a swedish airport coach company used an interesting way to advertise their service while also promoting CO2 emission reduction.

I also noticed the math is wrong, they didn’t consider the average number of people inside a bus like they did with the cars and if I’m not mistaken, most busses emits more CO2 than any other car (unless electrical busses and those with alternative fuel). But whether it’s 50 or 10 cars, on average, busses are greener and better for society (but less convenient for the individual).

Brazilian figure fans probably made themselves this question: To buy figures in Brazil (at Liberdade district mainly) or to buy them in international online stores?

With that question in mind, I decided to conduct an experience. In this post, I’ll show the results of this experience.
For those living in Brazil that are interested in buying something other than figures in international onlines stores, this topic might be worthy the read… since most products follows the same rules.
