A broad range of alternative-power vehicles were on display at the 2006 EarthFest on April 23 at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. Thousands of people were able to check out the following vehicles that reduce environmental impacts while providing reliable transportation.
Toyota Prius hybrid, part of the CityWheels car-sharing fleet that is coming to neighborhoods around Cleveland.
The Fatty Wagon of Great Lakes Brewing Co., a biofuel shuttle van that runs on waste vegetable oil from the company's restaurant.
A Volkswagen Jetta with a diesel engine modified by Full Circle Fuels in Oberlin to run on straight vegetable oil.
SUV from GM that runs on E85 ethanol.
Natural-gas-powered Honda Civic, part of a fleet operated by the Congregation of St. Joseph in Cleveland.
Ford Escape hybrid, part of a growing fleet of fuel-efficient, and money-saving hybrids being purchased by the City of Cleveland.
2006 Honda Civic hybrid offering high-mileage in a conventional car.
This site is inspired by the memory of Richard Shatten, a former board member of EcoCity Cleveland,
who pushed Northeast Ohio to think strategically about regionalism and sustainability.
