The Great American Ballpark and Biodiesel
Posted By RichC on August 18, 2009
Not only has the Cincinnati been a pioneer in using biodiesel in their city buses (PDF), but the Great American Ballpark is being praised as one of the greenest Major League Baseball facilities in the nation. The ballpark composts its grass clippings and convert all the cooking oil in the consession stands to biodiesel fuel according to a recent article. Reds outfielder Chris Dickerson, cofounder and CEO of “WePlayGreen.org,” says there has been great support in Cincinnati from Rumpke dispersing recycling bins to fans participating in efforts to use resources more carefully. Dickerson’s goal is to try and “instill consciousness” among Reds fans.
