“Clean, green, safe and serene”, is the mantra of Tobago and for this reason, the island has attracted many tourists from far and wide to bask in its beautiful waters and be refreshed with a breath of clean air. However, Tobago’s air is daily being polluted by exhaust fumes from buses owned by the Public Service Transportation Company (PTSC).
Patricia Turpin, president of Environment Tobago says that the fumes emitted, adds to the unbearable heat faced in Scarborough on sunny days.
