Bio-diesel made from food in oil-rich UAEClose

The Middle East is an area where automobile is king and fuel is cheap, frequently leaving little reward to discover more environmentally-friendly methods of moving.

But this year, as demonstrations across the Middle East have actually pressed up the cost of oil, the issue of finding alternative sources of fuel has actually entered into sharp focus.

In an area that has one of the highest carbon footprints worldwide, one organization is benefiting from the growing pressure to find options to oil. It's established the Middle East's first scheme to recycle cooking oil into biodiesel. It's proving successful too, currently their client-list consists of McDonald's.
