Thai taxis go green

In Thailand, taxis have gone green with mini gardens on car roofs

These cabs by Ratchapruk and Bovorn Taxi cooperatives were idled by the surge of the coronavirus

Workers from the taxi cooperatives assembled the miniature garden for survival as well as a form of protest

They have used black plastic garbage bags stretched across bamboo frames  and added soil on top of that 

A variety of crops, including tomatoes, cucumbers and string beans, were planted

It aims to draw attention to the fate of taxi drivers and operators who were badly hit by coronavirus lockdown

The cooperatives say almost 2,500 taxis are sitting idle at a number of city sites 

The drivers have left the cars as they could not find income even to meet daily expenses

In total, Thailand has confirmed 1.4 million cases and over 14,000 deaths
