		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Biodiesel is a liquid drop-in fuel of the highest quality; a renewable energy that possesses a minimum 50 percent reduction in carbon emission compared to distillate fuel. This reduction calculation takes into account indirect land use criteria as well as the life-cycle analysis of biodiesel.&quot;

It would seem worthwhile for the author to write an article supporting these claims. There are many customers who might be inclined to use and promote this product if the criteria and analysis for life-cycle reduction of 50 percent can be legitimately substantiated.  

A few years back a solar pool heating customer I was working for filled their one thousand gallon oil tank with $5/gal oil for home heating, and likely household water heating as well. That is $5,000 of money and climate change. At that rate of expense, a few seasons of oil cash invested in a deep energy retrofit would reduce maybe half their heat loss, at an ROI of 10-20%. Then biofuel might reduce climate destabilizing gas emissions another 50%. The combined action on energy demand as well as supply then leads toward net-zero climate emissions and reduction of imported oil, both increasing national security imperatives.]]></description>
