Actor and biodiesel enthusiast Daryl Hannah has been using biodiesel for over five years.

It made sense to me as soon as I found out it was even a possibility because it’s so much cleaner burning. It gets us off of our dependency on fossil fuels and foreign oil as well so we don’t have to go to war for oil.

I live in a place where they are constantly threatening to destroy the landscape for the mining of our natural resources, (so) it’s just something I’ve always been really aware of. The combination of trying to offset both the pollution and devastating our natural resources

Most people are really stunned to find out that the technology has been around for more than 100 years, and that the diesel engine was in fact invented to run on vegetable oil.
It has a toxicity level somewhere between table salt and maple syrup. You can carry it around because it’s not flammable, and it’s vegetable oil.
to get 90 miles to one gallon of vegetable oil, that’d be phenomenal.
