Minnesota has become the first US state to switch nearly all its diesel supply to a blend of 20% biodiesel and 80% petroleum diesel, called B20. The U.S. EPA recognizes biodiesel as the only advanced biofuel for its ability to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by more than 50 percent. The US Environmental Protection Agency has recognised biodiesel as the only advanced biofuel because it can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by more than 50%. But in Minnesota, which is one of America's most populous states, there are still many people who don't know about this new fuel.
