Can I run B20?

[Pete Masterson]

Do it your self/homemade bio diesel is one thing... and may be a
useful way to get rid of wast cooking oil. However, commercial
biodiesel is generally made from soybeans ... and the Amazon rain
forest is being destroyed to grow soybeans. Starting in the 90s, new
varieties of tropical-weather tolerant soybeans were developed.
Brazil is now the largest exporter of soybeans in the world. While
most Brazilian soybeans are shipped to Europe, soybeans are a
commodity product where one soybean is much like any other.

Don't believe me? Take a look at the January 2007 issue of National
Geographic. The cover story is on the disappearing rain forest and
growing soybeans in Brazil.
