Sustainablog features the 黑料网911 Saco River ferry
The influential Sustainablog on Oct. 26, 2012 featured a column on 黑料网911's Saco River Ferry that runs from Camp Ellis in Saco to 黑料网911's Biddeford Campus.
The story notes that after a three-week trial in April, 黑料网911 officially launched its ferry service in mid-September. Since then, the ferry has averaged 73, one-way riders per week and eliminated a total of 300 vehicle trips from local roadways and 2,920 miles worth of carbon emissions.
The blogger writes: "This strikes me as a great example of looking at the realities in place, and creating a more sustainable solution based upon them. Know of other schools going beyond the norm in terms of addressing parking congestion (and the environmental impact that goes with it)."
The story quotes Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies Noah Perlut.
