    which do you think should be used keep in mind that diesel needs oil to be made and bio diesel needs food primarily wheat but. the price of oil is steadily rising so it makes diesel more expensive but bio diesel will take up a lot of food to fuel the worlds cars but is also pollution free and is actualy compatible with most diesel engines with no alteration of the design because then original design of the diesel engine was made to work off peanut oil.

    Bio-fuels would be nice, but as of now they aren't very viable. It's a few years old but I remember reading somewhere that if america was to run it's cars on bio-fuel it would need to dedicate and area the size of New England of pure corn crops or switch grass. This would be assuming that all harvests went perfectly with no damage from the environment. In my opinion crops just fluctuate too much to be a steady source of fuel.

    Well after the new studies that diesel leads to a higher cancer risk, I suppose we should look into bio-diesel.
    What if we just run our diesel vehicles on bio fuel?
