Biodiesel is an alternative or additive to standard diesel
fuel that is made from biological ingredients instead of petroleum (or crude
oil). Biodiesel is usually made from plant oils or animal fat through a series
of chemical reactions. It is both non-toxic and renewable. Because biodiesel
essentially comes from plants and animals, the sources can be replenished
through farming and recycling. Biodiesel is safe and can be used in diesel
engines with little or no modification needed. Although biodiesel can be used
in its pure form, it is usually blended with standard diesel fuel.
Biofuel wont harm the air and our environment which essentially
environmental science is all about. We need to help our community and our own
health. Here is a link to show how you can make your own biodiesel.
