Where is Biodiesel Made and Sold in Kentucky?
As concentrations of greenhouse gases in the environment have been increasing, we need to find ways to decrease man’s impact on the environment. Biodiesel is safe for the environment and produces less air pollution compared to petroleum diesel. When using pure biodiesel, the exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide (a poisonous gas and a factor in local smog formation) are 50 percent lower than when using petroleum diesel. The exhaust emissions of hydrocarbons, which also contribute to smog formation, are 95 percent lower.
