“Scientists for Biodiesel” formed to show “broad consensus among scientists about the benefits of biodiesel.”

In California, Dr. Rob Myers, founder and a director of the Thomas Jefferson Agricultural Institute,  announced the formation of “Scientists for Biodiesel” at the National Biodiesel Conference and Expo in San Francisco, with  Donald Danforth Plant Science Center President Roger Beachy. The two co-chairs issued a declaration on the benefits of biodiesel which they invited fellow scientists to sign. “Scientists sometimes have differences of opinion, but this declaration is intended to show the broad consensus among scientists about the benefits of biodiesel,” Myers said. “Our goal is to increase awareness and information sharing about the depth and breadth of the scientific research behind biodiesel that contributes to its sustainability.”
