Educating by example, a team of students from Dartmouth College, Hanover, NH, is driving a bus fueled by waste vegetable oil (WVO).
They're currently en route from Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming to Redmond, Washington. The web site is updated from the road. It also includes bios of the passengers.

Atop the bus is a 215-Watt photovoltaic panel, donated by SunPower, whose cells run at 20% efficiency, at the top of the commercial scale.
