The Chicago Park District, Illinois Soybean Association and American Lung Association have teamed up to create better air quality though biodiesel.

By running 100% biodiesel in park garbage trucks, the team
has improved air quality and reduced carbon emissions equivalent to planting
419 trees in Chicago parks annually.

Pete Probst is a contractor for the Chicago Park District’s B100
program and the Illinois Soybean Association.
