The National Biodiesel Board announced that it is launching the industry's largest-ever public outreach that will include national television advertising, in which a school bus is prominently featured.

The multi-millon dollar campaign is designed to raise awareness of the economic, environmental and national security benefits of "the nation's first and only EPA-designated advanced biofuel to reach nationwide production." The campaign includes radio advertising and a new Web site.
