(from Solartaxi Press
Release) The solar taxi
will leave Singapore at the end of March and then travel on through
Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, China and Korea to Canada and the USA.
The crew, which constantly takes turns and is made up of members
from all round the world, is convinced that the second half will be
easier. On 2nd December Palmer intends to be in Poland to take
part in the World Climate Change Conference before the solar taxi
heads back to the Technopark in Lucerne just before Christmas to
celebrate completing its journey round the world.
