Biodiesel has fans at the American Lung Association

As a renewable fuel, biodiesel counts among its friends environmentalists, farmers and people who get a kick out of the U.S. producing a fuel that displaces imported oil. Adding to the kind words is John DeRosa with the American Lung Association. He’s all for increasing blend rates and usage of biodiesel because of the demonstrated reduction in emissions. He says fine particulate matter, which is more plentiful in fossil fuels, can aggravate lung ailments including asthma in kids. The more biodiesel used, the better, according to John DeRosa.
