If you had the chance to reduce 40 to 60 percent of carbon emissions that currently clog our air, would you take it? Surprisingly, the solution is as simple as making a switch to biodiesel fuel. It’s a common misconception that engines must undergo a special conversion process in order to utilize biodiesel. In truth, any diesel engine can handle it, and it will actually be better lubricated to boot.
Making biodiesel isn’t exactly rocket science, either. The substance can be derived from waste vegetable oil, as well as from soy and palm oil. The plumes of smoke and insufferable odor that plague traditional diesel fumes are taken right out of the equation. Perhaps most significantly, the use of this alternative fuel has a tremendously positive effect on the environment by reducing the carbon footprint.
