12. What if it Finishes...?
A bus journey
Today, we were going on a school trip to the Adalaj stepwell (baoli ), about eighteen kilometres from Ahmedabad. We began counting the vehicles on the road. Some of us counted the bicycles, others counted the buses, cars, and motorcycles. Abraham, who was counting bicycles, soon got bored. There were hardly any bicycles on this highway.
Screeeech! The driver suddenly braked at the red light. It was a big crossing, and we could see the traffic lined up on all sides. Honk, honk, the sound of loud horns, and smoke coming out of the vehicles! May be that is why a little boy in a rickshaw was coughing so much. I smelt something, familiar. I remembered this smell – it came from Baba’s tractor in the village.
Look at the picture and write
- What are the different kinds of vehicles that you can see?
- What do you think they need as fuel?
- Which of the vehicles do you think give off smoke? Put a red mark on those.
Tell
- Do you ride a bicycle? If yes, where all do you go on it?
- How do you come to school?
- How do your family members go to work from home?
- What problems can we have from smoke coming out of vehicles?
On the petrol pump
After sometime our bus stopped at a petrol pump. There was a long queue. It seemed as if we would have a long wait. We all got down from the bus and started looking around the petrol pump. We saw many large boards and posters.
• Petrol and diesel will not last forever. Save it for your children.
• Make every drop go a long way.
• Switch off the engine when you stop the car.

Rate
Petrol: Rs 47.74 per litre
Diesel: Rs 35.21 per litre
We could not understand why it was written that petrol and diesel will not last forever. We thought of asking an uncle who works at the petrol pump.
