<p>The UK's first bus powered entirely by human and food waste has gone into service between Bristol and Bath.</p>
<p>The BBC reports: The 40-seat "Bio-Bus" runs on biomethane gas generated through the treatment of sewage and food waste.</p>
<p>The eco-friendly bus can travel up to 300km (186 miles) on one tank of gas, which takes the annual waste of about five people to produce.</p>
<p>It is run by tour operator Bath Bus Company and will shuttle people between Bristol Airport and Bath city centre.</p>
