Worth remembering on #CleanAirDay
The vast majority of commercial UK fleets still run on standard diesel, and contribute significantly to #AirPollution.
If these fleets made the simple switch from diesel to #GreenDBiofuel, we would immediately reduce pollution levels.
Today @chilternrailway launched its new fuel, made entirely from vegetable oil, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions by up to 90%. Railways are already one of the greenest ways to travel & this further builds on our goals of creating a net zero railway.
Oiling the wheels: @chilternrailway MD Richard Allan unveils the UK’s first passenger trains to be powered by reused vegetable oil.
“Plant-based” locomotives will run between Marylebone and Stourbridge Junction via Birmingham 🚂🥕🥦
Honoured to bring the legislation through parliament that will enable us to ban the use of a wide range of avoidable single use plastics including plastic plates and cutlery @DefraGovUK@chrisloder
“I wanted to fly around the world, have the girls see me and think, I'd love to fly one day too.”
19-year-old Zara Rutherford will set the record for the youngest woman to fly solo around the world when she pilots her Shark ultralight plane next month.
See it, be it!

@DefraGovUK Advanced fuels like Green D+ make a huge difference in these environments and the Lowcvp paper on renewable fuels could be a good starting point. #Sustainable renewable fuels as ‘fuel should cost the Earth’
Today the independent Review into Highly Protected Marine Areas is published 🌊
The Review calls for the introduction of #HPMAs in English waters. We will now be carefully considering the recommendations.

It great that all the works being done using Green D+ a #sustainable#renewable diesel alternative VolkerFitpatrick commitment to better air quality and saving carbon.
@BrianKGillman@Tesla Tesla is certainly not 100% emissions free we love the story the journey has its bumps & they provide some of the answers in a low carbon future let’s not forget life cycle GHG of a product & look at the facts that a car would need to travel 107k miles to achevie that claim
We live in Alameda County & a past client called me last week. "I'm selling my $2.4M home & moving. If an unelected county official can shut down @Tesla, imagine what they can do to my small company". (#Tesla was his client & he trained many of the employees) #LeavingCalifornia
Low carbon fuels are one of the best (only?) current ways to decarbonise the long haul and heavy road fleet. @theLowCVP webinar on 28th may will give more info and see our Renewable Fuels guide https://t.co/zPpCRid7jn for info.

Seeing the appreciation for the #keyworkers that keep our country running at this difficult time is extremely heartening.
Where would we be without the truck drivers, shop workers, NHS staff, refuse collectors & many others that work so hard to ensure we're looked after?
It's great to see our #GreenDBiofuel in action powering generators for @PowerElectrics. Read their latest blog to find out more about Green D, our low-emission, Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) fuel.

While the current situation in the UK and across the world regarding COVID-19 is rapidly changing each day, we want to assure our many valued customers that we remain fully operational during this difficult time. Read our statement here: https://t.co/2XILqrgu5d
Fears that electric cars could increase carbon emissions are a damaging myth, but shifting the car fleet to electric by 2050 will be difficult, new research shows. We want to cut #emissions in the interim by supplying diesel fleets with our #GreenDBiofuel.

2.9 years of life expectancy are lost because of outdoor #AirPollution, according to a new global study – a higher toll than tobacco smoking. We must utilise solutions such as sustainable #biofuel to cut #emissions today.

Expanding London's ultra-low emission zone will reduce the number of long-term diseases linked to toxic air by a third, according to experts. We want to see a strong uptake in renewable #biofuels to cut #emissions from diesel fleets even further. https://t.co/wtHf2GNfXn #ULEZ
