Bio-diesel made from food in oil-rich UAEClose
The Middle East is a region where car is king and fuel is low-cost, often leaving little reward to find more environmentally-friendly ways of walking around.
But this year, as protests throughout the Middle East have actually pushed up the price of oil, the concern of finding alternative of fuel has actually entered into sharp focus.
In a region that has among the highest carbon footprints worldwide, one organization is benefiting from the growing pressure to find alternatives to oil. It's set up the Middle East's very first plan to recycle cooking oil into biodiesel. It's proving profitable too, currently their client-list includes McDonald's.
