The humanity has been dependent on the fossil fuels for several decades, almost every vehicle or machine works thanks to a derivative of them, but what are we going to do when we run out of fossil fuels?. This is a question that many countries are trying to answer. Well I think that a possible answer for this question is the use of Biodiesel.
The Biodiesel is a fuel that is derived from 100% renewable resources; many people in the world believe that Biodiesel is the fuel of the future. Biodiesel does not contain petroleum; it is made through a process called transesterfication, in which glycerine is removed from vegetable oils or fats. Biodiesel is free from substances like sulfur and aromatics which are found in traditional fuels. The use of this fuel is great in many ways, for example, it is biodegradable and non-toxic, and surprisingly it is so safe that it is even safer than the commonly used table salt. In a way it would even benefit our planet because the levels of pollution could decrease in a considerable way.
As I said before, one of the biggest features about biodiesel fuel is that is it environmentally-friendly, which means that it is not as toxic as other fuels. It is made from renewable resources, so it does not cause harmful effects to the environment that will produce positive effects on the future generations. It is also good for the economy of a country, because it comes from the resources which can be produced in any country, and by saying this I mean that a country can become fewer dependent on foreign countries and the money used for buying fossil fuels could be used for other purposes. A lot of countries such as Germany, Canada, The United States, France, Italy, Malaysia and Sweden already use this fuel. This could be a great replacement for the fossil fuels, because it has a lot more advantages than disadvantages, and I really think that we should use this fuel now and try to help the environment in a certain way.
