The Green Queens FLL Team from YMCA LEAD program proudly present their Smart Move skit

Jasmine: 30 minutes until these bratty kids get on my bus.

Monica: Phew! That stinks, did you kidnap one of my kids?

Jasmine: I don't smell anything.

Monica: Then what stinks?

Jasmine: You skunk, without a doubt.

Monica: I smell like butterflies and flowers. Aren't you the one idling and the gas from your bus smells?

Jasmine: Idling? What is that?

Monica: Idling is the operating at a low speed disengaged from the load

Jasmine: Well can you leave me alone now? Talking animals creep me out.

Monica: Don't you enjoy watching animals on the Disney channel talk all the time? You have to stop idling!

Kate: I am professor EPPA and I am here to reduce air pollution. We have to stop bus drivers from idling school buses

Andrea: and I am Professor Bad Fuel and I like having bad fuels in school buses!

Kate: Nooooooo!! Putting good fuels in buses.

Andrea: OOOOhh!!!

Kate: Anyway buses shouldn't idle because idling school buses burn fuel that doesn't need to be burned which pollutes the air even more and also destroys children's and driver's health.

Jasmine: I don't mean to do it, but it's just that kids take too long to get on the buses.

Kate: That's why we have to change the engines to compressed natural gas. Or hybrid electric.

Andrea: Maybe we should use coal; it's the best fossil fuel for vehicles.

All: Coal?!?

Kate: Where did you get that baloney??

Andrea: Log on to badscientists.com where you can find hundreds of tips to pollute the air.

Christine: What's going on?

Jasming: Bad Fuel Scientist wants to use coal to run school buses

Kate (exclaims): Don't even try that bad fuel!

Andrea: I'll try it if I want to

Jasmine: That is not good for any of us.

Christine: She's right, Bad Fuel. You should stop coming up with these harmful ideas.

Andrea: (chuckles)

Kate: I would like to propose using hybrid electric school buses. New York is going to start using Hybrid Electric school buses. They are event planning to give 19 Hybrid Electric school buses to 11 other participating states.

Monica: That SMELLS like a very good idea!

Jasmine: I feel much better when I have to idle the school bus while I wait for the children to get on the bus.
