Vermont’s Killington Resort, the largest ski and snowboard resort in Eastern North America, today announced that it will power its K-1 Express Gondola during the 2012-13 season with electricity generated directly from cows on Vermont dairy farms. The initiative was made possible through Killington’s enrollment in Green Mountain Power’s Cow Power program, which enables GMP customers to purchase all or part of their electricity at a premium and support Vermont’s dairy farms as well as the development of new cow power projects across the state.

There has to be a good joke or pun in here somewhere :spread:
