My book is a thriller, but I saw no reason not to include environmental themes as they fitted in with the story. I figured it wouldn't only be interesting for the reader, but it would also promote worthy causes. The vegetable oil powered car was something I read about in a similar blog post to this and simply thought was way too cool not to use. In reality, this is a great idea. But as the post says, people do get a lot of stick, from a variety of angles, if they try to embrace this green technology. It's much the same in England where I live - the government, industry, everyone makes is difficult for you to implement this even though it's so green and, let's face it, cheap! But then what can you expect? The only reason the world is in the state it's in is because corporations are so greedy to wring every last cent out of us they possibly can. Until that changes, nothing else will. Sad but true. An interesting article. Steve N.

They collect left over cooking oil from restaurants and produce biodiesel from that and use that biodiesel to transport goods within the community. Amazing social engineering example worth its mention and recognition from mainstream media.

Another important thing though is to reduce our dependence on cars.
