Bio-diesel made from food in oil-rich UAEClose
The Middle East is a region where vehicle is king and fuel is cheap, often leaving little incentive to discover more environmentally-friendly methods of walking around.
But this year, as protests across the Middle East have actually risen the cost of oil, the issue of discovering alternative sources of fuel has entered into sharp focus.
In an area that has one of the highest carbon footprints worldwide, one business is taking advantage of the growing pressure to discover options to oil. It's set up the Middle East's very first scheme to recycle cooking oil into biodiesel. It's proving lucrative too, currently their client-list consists of McDonald's.
