The bio-diesel today is being sold for approximately four dollars and fifty cents per gallon.
This would have a much more staggering impact right now if we drove more diesel cars (which can take either regular diesel or biodiesel). This is also an old figure (1996) but it certainly indicates that biodiesel isn't too far out of reach given today's gas prices. Maybe soon we'll be panning the importance of all that gulfshore refining capability we were so worried about with Rita. -janelane, bio-friendly BIO-DIESEL: A Sensible Alternative? |
