Life cycle analyses by the Argonne National Laboratory have indicated reduced fossil energy use and reduced greenhouse gas emissions with biodiesel, compared with petroleum diesel use. [204] Biodiesel derived from various vegetable oils (e.g. canola or soybean oil), is readily biodegradable in the environment compared with petroleum diesel.

In “Our Kindred Creatures,” authors Bill Wasik and Monica Murphy explore the origins of the animal welfare movement and follow the activists who influenced how we treat dogs and cats today.
