A 'Pedal-Powered Popemobile' for Pope Francis
There's "no excuse for the big man to always roll in an SUV," says the inventor of this eco-friendly holy tricycle.
Take a minute to look at the absolutely beaming face of the Pope in the above image. Although it's only an artistic rendering, I am 100 percent certain this is how happy His Holiness will be once he test-drives the world's first "pedal-powered popemobile."
After all, this is a man who rode the public-bus system for 15 years. Don't you think he'd love to show the world his commitment to sustainability by cruising around on a no-emissions tricycle? It would be right in line with the Vatican's recent moves toward greenness, what with Pope Benedict's electric car, solar panels and carbon-offset forestry program.
