[Thanks to Amanda Durand in LA!]Give the planet a vacation the next time you take one ... Rent a Bio-Beetle!
Cars fueled by *100% Biodiesel, a clean-burning diesel fuel, made from 100% natural, 100% renewable sources. The First all biodiesel Eco Car Rentals in the world! Now open in Los Angeles California!
It's about time! The cars get 400-800 miles per tank, so finding a refueling station besides the Culver City headquarters is usually not an issue. Bio-Beetle is in the process of getting more fueling stations set up in the Los Angeles area and on Maui.
Biodiesel is a cleaner-burning diesel fuel, made from 100% natural, 100% renewable vegetable sources. Here are just a few of the vegetable oils that can be used to make biodiesel - mustard, rapeseed (aka canola), palm, olive, peanut, soy bean, safflower, sunflower, castor, etc. On Maui, all biodiesel is made from used cooking oil.
Fossil fuel is the primary cause of pollution in the world whereas Biodiesel offers those who want a clean environment the option to make a significant beneficial impact by using a renewable fuel. The question is: "Sustainability? Or business (pollution) as usual?"
Biodiesel dramatically reduces particulate matter emissions and other federally targeted emissions while helping to stabilize greenhouse gases. Biodiesel is also non-toxic, biodegradable and free of sulfur.
Companies like Grassolean are driving the biodiesel revolution. See Darryl Hannah on The O'Reilly Factor describing the benefits of driving a "grease car". In her case, it is a normal GMC diesel truck that has not been specially modified in any way. She gets a 55-gallon drum of biodiesel (essentially recycled cooking oil and alcohol) delivered directly to her home.
