Biofuel is better for the environment due to the fact it is made from renewable resources - we can always make more and become less reliant on overseas suppliers.
100% biodiesel has been designated as an alternative fuel by the Department of Energy and the US Dept. of Transportation.
Biofuel has up to 50% less emissions (carbon monoxide & carbon dioxide) into the atmosphere compared to regular diesel fuel. Carbon dioxide is the leading greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming.
Purchasing alternative fuels within the US makes our country less dependent on foreign oil suppliers, which also supports the growth of the US economy.
Biofuel biodegrades very quickly (as fast as sugar).
The use of biofuel reduces unburned hydrocarbons (creates smog), carbon monoxide (a poisonous gas), and particulate matter (a health hazard) compared to diesel fuel.
