Fill 'er Up... With Biodiesel

SUMMIT COUNTY - When Seth Bounds started his car service in Summit County nearly three years ago, he felt a sense of environmental responsibility. So he named the company "Green Limousines" and decided to try his luck running the fleet on biodiesel. He's used it ever since.

"It's how we lead our personal lives," Bounds said. "It's how we run our business."

Bounds' cars are often in Denver and other areas on the Front Range where biodiesel is readily available, making it easy to fill up. But up here in Summit County, public pumps don't carry biodiesel.

"It's really hard for personal drivers to make that jump," he said. "There are a few people in the area who are interested, but they have to go to pretty extreme measures to get it."
