What do you get when you mix 12 Dartmouth students and one veggie oil powered bus? The ultimate college road trip. I went to The Climate Institute's reception for The Big Green Bus's bio-travelers last night at the Stewart-Mott house in DC, then met the crew in Arlington at one of my favorite places to collect grease; we chatted while the team spent about two hours adjusting the bus's pumping and filtering system before topping off the bus's 210 gallon tank. The pulled out sometime after midnight headed to Bonaroo in Tenn. The website for the trip is: www.thebiggreenbus.org .
