Biodegradable motor oil made from cow fat?

A biodegradable motor oil from cow fat sounds wonderful doesn't it! Just imagine the possibilities when it comes to something like this. There would be a reduction in our dependence on foreign oils. The environmental impact from waste oil would be eliminated. It's like a grand utopia of self-reliance and green pastures filled with dancing cows and unicorns and rainbows and.... wait.

The fact is, a biodegradable motor oil would be fantastic, but that's not the whole story. When this oil is extracted from cows, that means there's yet another reason to keep them locked up in pens and harvested for the sake of consumerism. So boo for that. This new oil (which comes out this fall) is not for our cars and trucks, but it's for small 2-cycle and 4-cycle engines, which frankly need all the help they can get in the eco-friendly department.

If this sounds like something you think you might be interested in, head on over to the website of Green Earth Technologies for a full product listing.
