Old and abandoned buses are parked in a garage in the outskirts of Sao Paulo on January 23. Large street protests against rising bus fares have taken place in Sao Paulo, Brazil's biggest city. Fares were increased from 3 reais to 3.50 reais ($1.14 to $1.33) in January as Sao Paulo's city government looks to cut the nearly $2 billion it spends annually on bus subsidies.
