I just saw an ad for something called Green Shield. Apparently Pepsi has a program where they give grants for good ideas, and this 14 year old kid is building aerodynamic fairings for the fronts of school buses.
I wonder how much the shield really reduces drag. It would be better if the sides were closed and if the shield went all the way to the roof instead of the top of the windshield.
