About
This site was started to promote the use and knowledge of alternative fuels in Australia. Since its inception Envirofuel has grown to cover the wider scope of sustainable mobility from an Australian perspective, of which alternative fuels are a small part. Envirofuel scans the Australian and global news for information impacting Australian sustainable mobility and displays it for all to read
On this blog worldwide news is provided by the four excellent RSS feeds in the right hand column. These are AutoblogGreen, Biopact, Checkbiotech Biofuel News and Green Car Congress. Between all four you will get good coverage of the major news in the Americas and Europe with some Australian content. Envirofuel aims to fill the gap by providing sustainable mobility news from Australia and the Asia Pacific region that has not already been covered elsewhere.
On this blog we use the term “biofuels” to refer to those fuels that are made using biological matter. This includes biodiesel, ethanol and biobutanol. When we use the term “alternative fuels” we are referring to things like electricity, hydrogen, natural gas and synthetic fuels not made from renewable feedstocks.
We seek your input. If you know of any project within the scope of Envirofuel we’d like to tell us about it. We’d also like your feedback on any of the articles on this site and for you to answer questions from other readers. We look forward to your readership, your discussion and an increasing awareness and use of sustainable mobility.
Regards,
Luke
