The game is on. Join in for a Clean Transportation Scavenger Hunt as part of the Global Climate Action Summit, happening this week in San Francisco.
Follow clues, snap pictures, share your photos on Twitter/Instagram and win prizes. Event runs until 5pm Friday, September 14.
HOW TO PLAY:
- Sign the waiver
- Search For Clues: Use the clues below to identify different forms of clean transportation in SF. Answer just four clues to win.
- Snap A Pic: Take a photo that represents each answer.
- Share Your Photos: Post your photos on Twitter or Instagram – tag #GCASScavengerHunt to be eligible for prizes.
THE CLUES:
Answers may be a transportation mode, hub, or infrastructure.
- I go above and below ground, both in and outbound. My favorite letters are JKLMNT.
- We run off 100% pedal power (unless we’ve got an electric boost). Research shows people who use us have some of the happiest commutes.
- We’ve got rubber tires and we’re connected to overhead wires. Our power comes from SF’s hydroelectric Hetch Hetchy Water and Power system.
- I’m the oldest way to get around, and I’m the sole mode of transportation that’s universally affordable.
- We’re world famous, tourists love us, and we provide transit service to some of San Francisco’s hilliest neighborhoods.
- I’m a form of mass transit that requires no wheels, cables, or tracks.
- I’m brand new and have a rooftop park and a bus terminal. In the future I’ll connect you to Caltrain and High-Speed Rail.
- Roll out the red carpet… I’m a designated lane that gives thousands of bus riders a quicker, smoother ride all hours of the day.
- I don’t have spiky yellow hair — or get around town on a skateboard — but I do carry 27,000 people per hour under the SF bay at rush hour.
- I’m a special lane that helps you navigate the road while using a super-clean bi-pedal mode.
- My nickname is “accordion,” and I hold about 50% more passengers than my smaller counterparts.
- Red, yellow, green, blue: We came from Boston, Melbourne and Milan to you.
GRAND PRIZES:
