Alternative fuels in school

I'm not sure what's taught at CHS about alternative fuels, but Shepaug High is teaching about alternative fuels.

UPDATE

Interestingly, I just received this email from a friend... "BioPur Inc. in Bethlehem, CT is taking the lead in New England with the production of biodiesel fuel in a new “State of the Art” production plant. The opening ceremony is scheduled for 1:00 PM on July 5th, 2006. The plant which is the first of its kind in Connecticut as well as New England will make biodiesel from soybeans grown in the Maryland and Delaware area, and transported to Connecticut for processing."

So it seems as though we will have production of biofuel in CT. And GM will be putting another 400,000 of their "flexfuel" (biofuel compatible) vehicles on America's roads by the end of this year. It seems to me that the last major component of rolling out biofuel vehicles in CT is the distribution network. I wonder if our town will ever act on my idea for rezoning the northend to allow for an alternative fuel station?
