 The United Nations Security Council on Monday unanimously approved a new round of sanctions on North Korea, one week after the country conducted its sixth and strongest nuclear test to date.

The new sanctions ban 90 percent of North Korea's publicly-reported exports and cap the amount of oil the country is able to import, according to a U.S. official familiar with the negotiations.

“We are very pleased with this package," the official said of the resolution, even though it required U.S. concessions to China and Russia to win approval. "This is the strongest set of sanctions that the Security Council has imposed. It represents yet another major step.”

NK has already been using coal powered buses; I believe an article was posted on this.  And yes, passengers end up having to smell a lot of that smoke.

Well hell ...Fire up the smoker and it is a pleasant Valley sunday in Nork

The local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn their song
They serenade the weekend squire
Who just came out to mow his lawn
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Charcoal burning everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care
