This giant bus is made from 50 wrecked passenger cars, and it's meant to encourage commuters to take public transportation instead of driving. The auto sculpture was created by Swedish agency Acne for the Flygbussarna bus company and sits on the primary road to the Stockholm airport.
An interactive website shows a live feed of the Flygbussarna bus sculpture, as well as a calculator to help commuters determine how much carbon they would save if they took public transportation to the airport instead of driving.
