Chrysler is encouraging drivers to run biodiesel in their new vehicles.
“Modern clean diesel offers significant improvements in fuel economy, which also means a reduction in carbon dioxide greenhouse gas emissions,” said Deborah Morrissett, Vice President – Regulatory Affairs for Chrysler.
“When our diesel products are run on clean, renewable biodiesel, the environmental benefits are even greater – at the same time we are reducing our dependence on petroleum and supporting America’s farm economy.”
Hooray! Finally a fuel product that not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions, but also helps us to become less dependent on foreign petroleum. Plus, as an added bonus, it can be produced from any number of ingredients, including plants and also waste food products.
What are the major manufacturers waiting for? Will we still be wishing and hoping, while the rest of the world takes advantage of a renewable earth friendly product?
