The point is that you make bio-diesel from veggie oil.
The very first successful engine made by Rudolf Diesel was designed to run
on veggie oil, (Peanut oil if I remember correctly), and mineral oil was
adopted much later. The original idea was to use veggie oil as it was much
easier to come by and needed less expensive processing. Old Rudolf was way
ahead of his time. He did, in fact state his engine was meant to cut down on
pollution.
Diesel died under mysterious circumstances in 1913, vanishing during an
overnight crossing of the English Channel on the mail steamer Dresden from
Antwerp to Harwich. Diesel's death might have been suicide, accidental or an
assassination. Proponents of the assassination theory point out that shortly
after Diesel's death, a diesel-powered German submarine fleet became the
scourge of the seas. Diesel had been friendly to France, Britain and the
United States.
