The Illinois Soybean Association’s (ISA) B20 Club announced its sponsorship of the Chicago Area Clean Cities coalition (CACC) to promote the benefits of biodiesel.

The B20 Club is promoting the use of the alternative fuel for its environmental, economic, and sustainable benefits for the state of Illinois through the support of the CACC, according to the coalition.

The club is funded by the Illinois soybean checkoff, a commodity program that invests funds from soybean producers in market development, research, and educational programs.

“By promoting biodiesel’s benefits through CACC, we can play a greater role in reducing our state’s carbon footprint and supporting local economies,” says Gary Berg, ISA Director from St. Elmo, Ill. “Furthermore, increased biodiesel consumption supports Illinois farmers by creating more demand for soybean oil, which ultimately builds a more sustainable future for Illinois.”

The club’s annual reduction in CO2 emissions is the equivalent of planting 10,638 trees, says CACC.

Turning Connected Vehicle Data Into Decisions That Matter

Fleet leaders have more data than ever, but turning that data into clear, actionable decisions remains a challenge. This white paper shows how leading organizations are using connected vehicle data to improve safety, reduce costs, and optimize fleet performance. Learn how to turn insight into action across your fleet.

Are You Tracking Your Fleet's True Total Cost of Ownership?

Bobit Business Media surveyed 190 fleet professionals and found that while most fleets are tracking costs, fragmented systems and data gaps are keeping true TCO visibility out of reach. With rising pressure to control spend in an increasingly volatile environment, the gap between what fleets think they know and what the data actually shows is wider than you might expect. See how your peers are managing costs today and where the industry still has room to improve.
