Environmentalists with diesel cars have used vegetable oil for years as an alternative fuel to cut back on sooty emissions, but as gas prices soar above $2 a gallon, they say their “veggie cars” are a great way to save cash.

I am no expert, but to me it almost seems that we as a society could develop a new win win in our transportation/energy needs by partnering with the vegetable oil refiners and converting more (diesel) cars to run off vegetable oil. it seems to me that the agriculture community here would benefit greatly by a new market for their produce opening up in the form of alternative fuels that have been proven to work as well(and cleaner) then the fossil fuels we are currently using. But that is just my thinking.
