The Middle East is an area where car is king and fuel is low-cost, typically leaving little incentive to discover more environmentally-friendly ways of walking around.
But this year, as protests throughout the Middle East have pushed up the cost of oil, the problem of discovering alternative sources of fuel has entered into sharp focus.
In an area that has among the greatest carbon footprints worldwide, one service is making the most of the growing pressure to find options to oil.
