Bio-diesel made from food in oil-rich UAEClose
The Middle East is a region where automobile is king and fuel is low-cost, often leaving little incentive to find more environmentally-friendly methods of walking around.
But this year, as demonstrations throughout the Middle East have pushed up the rate of oil, the issue of discovering alternative sources of fuel has actually come into sharp focus.
In an area that has among the highest carbon footprints in the world, one business is taking benefit of the growing pressure to find alternatives to oil.
