Louis Palmer and the Solartaxi

Since leaving Switzerland in the beginning of July in 2007, Louis Palmer has driven his solar-powered, three-wheeled, two-seater car around the world. Yesterday morning — a few days after giving a lift to the UN Secretary General in New York City (who afterward said "I hope I can enjoy another ride") — the Solartaxi came through our little town of Brattleboro, Vermont... the long road through Europe, the Middle East, India, China, Asia, New Zealand, Australia, and the United States nearly at its end. The tour will be over in December at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Poland.
