Student health and academic improvements with clean school buses

Some citations for research and study literature show considerable improvements in student respiratory
health, academic performance, and student attendance when old diesel school buses are replaced with
cleaner engines or electric school buses. They emphasize the benefits of transitioning to cleaner and
more environmentally-friendly school buses.

The main points of these six studies are that
● Diesel exhaust causes cancer,
● Exhaust from diesel engine school buses can be higher inside than outside the bus,
● Retrofitting diesel school buses is not only beneficial for students’ health but also improves their
academic outcomes,
● Reducing school bus emissions is clearly associated with better academic performance, and
● Increasing the pace at which older, highly polluting buses are replaced positively impacts
student attendance.
