There are facilities or service providers who collect grease for restaurant or home owners who are having problems with it and would want to properly dispose of their unwanted grease. We now hear of news that used cooking oil still have eco-friendly purposes like that of turning it into bio-diesel. Thanks to those who make it an effort in inform others that waste materials even cooking oil can still be of use.

I thought it was such a cool idea to power your car on recycled vegetable oil that I gave one of the central characters in my novel a car just like that.
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.

I recommend people who read this article to visit http://www.bioliberty.com and see what a wonderful work Gordon is doing there. 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.

I think recycled vegetable oil as fuel is part of the way forward, and there are successful schemes, from fast food chanis selling their fryer oil to be used in this way to bus companies giving reduced fares to peopele who bring their own bottle of used cooking oil.
Another important thing though is to reduce our dependence on cars.
