Truckers should
back biodiesel
All trucking advocacy groups,
such as the American Trucking
Associations, should do what
the farm cooperatives did to
help farmers. They united and
started group purchases of
ethanol plants in order to help
farmers.
We need to start local
groups that can pool their
resources and start biodiesel
plants. There is a large
untapped resource out there if
all the truckers in the country
united to buy biodiesel. We
could help create the supply
as well as the demand for the
fuel.
If farmers can do it with
ethanol, then truckers can do it
with biodiesel.
