A groundbreaking documentary about the renewable energy called bio-diesel, a fuel made by a chemical reaction of alcohol and vegetable or animal oils, fats, greases, even algae, that can be used in any diesel engine without modification.
The film follows the lives of Bob and Kelly King, a Maui based couple whose pioneering vision created America’s first sustainable bio-diesel refinery in 1996. Diverting thousands of tons of municipal grease trap and waste vegetable oil from a landfill, theirs was the first private company in America to refine the waste fats, oils and grease into clean-burning bio-diesel.
In Revolution Green we see how critical renewable energy is to the future of the world economy.
