McDonald’s Puts Oil To Green Use

BBC:

McDonald’s is to convert all its UK delivery vehicles to run on biodiesel, using the firm’s supply of cooking oil.

The fast-food chain has pledged to convert all its 155 vehicles by next year, starting with 45 lorries based at its distribution centre in Hampshire.

By using the fuel – made by combining cooking oil and rapeseed oil – the firm said it would save more than 1,650 tonnes of carbon every year.

The move follows a successful trial last year.
