Biofuels Touted As Healthier Alternative To Petrol-Based Diesel

A study commissioned by the National Biodiesel Board suggests adopting 100% biodiesel can improve the quality of life for many metropolitan areas.  The Health Benefits Study was released last month by the board, and NBB’s Floyd Vergara highlights some of their findings.

Vergara says the goal of the study is to show the immediate role biodiesel can play in making a positive impact on public health as well as the environment.

Floyd Vergara of the National Biodiesel Board notes that the study not only focuses on switching to 100% biodiesel, but also switching to a soy-based source for heating oil in the Northeast during winter.
