I believe that the future for America is to adopt distributive generation and switching to diesel powered automobiles. Distributive generation is based on powering a house or a block or more of houses locally and this cuts down on transmission line losses. Home heating oils are nothing more than "dino-diesel" which contributes to additional carbon emissions into the atmosphere.

Biodiesel is derived from either used or new vegetable oils, and hence it's combustion does not contribute to the net carbon emission unlike petroleum based fuels which should have stayed underground.   Read More »

We are a family of 5 and we own a floor covering supply warehouse in Colorado Springs, Colorado. We had known about Biodiesel for several years but did not have the facility, resources or time to work with it. After Katrina in '05, we knew the country was going to be in big trouble with fuel so we decided that it was time to start working with Biodiesel. We finally had a place and we had the tools to begin working on it.   Read More »
Biofuels are produced by converting organic matter into fuel for powering our society. These biofuels are an alternative energy source to the fossil fuels that we currently depend upon.

There are several nations which are seriously involved in the development of biofuels.

There is Brazil, which happens to be the world's biggest producer of ethanols derived from sugars. It produces approximately three and a half billion gallons of ethanol per year.

The United States, while being the world's greatest oil-guzzler, is already the second largest producer of biofuels behind Brazil.

The European Union's biodiesel production capacity is now in excess of four million (British) tonnes. 80 percent of the EU's biodiesel fuels are derived from rapeseed oil; soybean oil and a marginal quantity of palm oil comprise the other 20 percent.

Iam interested in Biodiesel. This is a clean burning fuel, and no war required. I know vw is coming out with a new diesel system in late 2008-2009. I was wondering what other thought about this fuel option.
