We are Committed to a Better World: For fifteen years New Leaf has been recycling used cooking oil into high-quality biodiesel and replacing the need for petroleum diesel. Biodiesel reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 80% which has profound impacts both on a global and local scale. Globally, lower greenhouse gasses mean lower risks of devastating consequences of climate change such as rising sea levels and more frequent natural disasters. Locally, it means lower asthma and cancer rates and preserving our beautiful San Diego skyline. By using cleaner fuel, future generations will get to experience clean, fresh air – an idea that everyone can get behind.
