After learning about the environmental benefits of serving in-season, locally grown vegetables in the “Arthur” episode “Muffy’s Car Campaign,” the students at Lakewood Elementary petition for more school buses to help one day make Elwood City car free. Fearing this will be the end of her dad’s car business, Muffy looks to derail the petition only to learn that Crosswire Motors is changing with the times by adding a new electric car to the mix. With her dad’s help, Muffy alerts her friends that the fictional car manufacturer agreed to buy the school several electric school buses.
Warehouse operations also seem to be changing with the times as the concept of sustainable facilities has become a must for today’s operations managers.
