Biodiesel Power: The Passion, the People, and the Politics of the Next Renewable Fuel

Biodiesel Power: The Passion, the People, and the Politics of the Next Renewable Fuel, by Lyle Estill, Paperback, New, 274 pages

Whether we are nearing the end of oil or merely nearing the end of inexpensive oil, it is becoming increasingly clear that we need to find alternative ways to meet our energy needs. Biodiesel is one such alternative that reduces emissions, improves air quality and can even be made at home - and is one of the fastest growing sectors of the US economy.

Biodiesel Power is a chronicle of this emerging industry. Tracking the people, the stories and the rapidly moving history of the biodiesel movement with wit and wisdom, author Lyle Estill reveals the tensions among grassroots activists and their altruistic co-ops, the profit-minded commercial producers and the voices of agribusiness.
