Around the World in 80 Days in Electric Vehicles

A group of environmentalists set off from Geneva, Switzerland, traveling in electric vehicles for an "Around the World in 80 Days" trip Monday, CRI reports.
The global tour, named "Zero Race," aims to promote emissions-free transportation and November's world climate conference.
It was organized by Swiss schoolteacher Louis Palmer and won support from the United Nations Environment Program.
Four teams from Switzerland, Germany, Australia and South Korea will join the 30,000-meter excursion, which will take them to 16 countries and 150 cities in the world.
