Biodiesel made from used tyres could be the solution to Australia's fuel security problems

Fascinating but I can't help but wonder about the smoke. There has to be smoke.

No worries, environmental "green" smoke doesn't count as Global Warming Greenhouse CO2 emissions.  Because it's Environmental smoke.  It gets a Hall Pass.

===============================

Professor Brown said without testing the fuel himself he cannot put an exact figure on emissions.

"I would say that it is possible, with the system they've used to create a fuel that would have probably similar emissions to diesel," he said.

A smokestack pumps out smoke into the air.

"Not necessarily any worse, but I mean I doubt whether they'll be 10 times better."

Just think, if you run out of fuel you simply put your tires in your tank!
