Oxford, MI - On Saturday, February 10, from 1- 4 pm,
Upland Hills Ecological Awareness Center is hosting a seminar: BIODIESEL
AND OTHER FUEL EFFICIENT OPTIONS, with Jim Leidel.
Come learn how to make your own clean and renewable diesel fuel substitute
for 50 cents per gallon from waste restaurant oil. If you don't drive a
diesel car or truck, come learn how to save 10 to 40% on any vehicle's fuel
bill. In his 2006 State of the Union address, President Bush put forward
the lofty goal to reduce our Middle East oil imports by 75%, in the next 20
years. Ambitious? With some effort and political will power, we can do 100% in
less than five years. Come and learn how simple change can be, and what
you can do to get started.
Jim Leidel has been the energy manager for Oakland University for the past 5 years. He is a mechanical engineer with 16 years experience with energy management and building control systems.
