Subject | Fund the BioFuel Oasis in Berkeley |
Comment | Hello! I wanted to express the reasons why BioFuel Oasis deserves funding: 1) Global Warming: I have not owned a car in 15 years while living in NYC, not needed. Living here in the Bay Area a car is needed. My passion for the slowing down global warming in any small way lead me to choose getting a diesel car and using biodiesel only. Biodisel has lower carbon dioxide/greenhouse gas emissions and lower particulates, which means cleaner air and less global warming. 2) Sustainability: BioFuel Oasis is a small, locally-owned and women-owned business with the money staying in the state and local community. The biodiesel is made as locally as possible from recycled vegetable oil. 3) Gas Prices: The popularity of biodiesel is on the rise and is of the utmost importance that you support alternative fuel options for the public. http://www.ajc.com/business/content/business/stories/2007/05/21/0521bizgas.html 4) Accesibility: The new location will make biodiesel easily accessed, not only to the Bay Area, but to travelers on the busy I-80 corridor. I commute from Monclair in the Oakland hills to Richmond, so the location is perfect for me to stop over and get my biodiesel. Many thanks for listening! Gita Pabla |
