Koch Brothers Fund Anti-electric Bus Propaganda

What a surprise!  The Koch Brothers are worth $120 billion dollars, a fortune built on oil, gas and other extraction industries.  They hate the concept of electric buses for a simple reason, the don't use oil or natural gas as fuel.  So, the Koch are using their network of propagandists to attack electric buses.
Electric buses are replacing existing diesel-fueled fleets at an accelerating rate, and the transition to battery-powered buses is outpacing even the most optimistic projections. In this light, it should come as little surprise that commentators and organizations with ties to the Koch network and the oil industry are attacking a transportation option that yields fewer fossil fuel profits and cleaner, healthier air for people and planet.
