My buddy Dave (who I owe pictures from my last visit), sent a great article link from Wired on the massive adoption rate of bio-diesel among the US military, especially the Marines.
The basic gist is that by using B20 blend, 20% bio-diesel/80% regular diesel, the Marines are the first branch of the US military to have successfully gone and reduced their fuel consumption by 20%, a target set by the President.
Other military branches are following in the Marines’ footsteps and many government agencies, such as NASA, are doing the “Bio-D” shuffle.
This is very good news.
