Minnesota Ends Global Warming...and Their School Buses

Don Surber reports on some eco-silliness in Minnesota:

Question: How is that biodiesel fuel in saving the planet?

Answer: Well, some Minnesota schools switched to biodiesel fuel this year and instantly, global warming ended there. Think global, act local.

Unfortunately, at cold temperatures, biodiesel fuel turns into sludge. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported: “Bloomington Public Schools closed Friday after biodiesel fuel required to be used under state law gelled in about a dozen school buses due to subzero temperatures. The problem left some students at bus stops on Thursday morning for as long as 30 minutes or sitting on stalled buses.”

Here in Poca, we still run the school buses on regular diesel. Of course, we realize it gets cold in the winter. We’re kinda surprised the Minnesota legislature hasn’t figured that out by now.

At least their buses smell like french fries...when they're running.
