Scientists devise way to convert toxic cigarette butts into green fuel

Scientists around the world are exploring new, innovative ways to reduce our dependence on toxic, non-renewable sources of energy while focusing on discovering viable, renewable and eco-friendly alternatives. One such clean source of fuel is biodiesel, which is made from biological elements such as edible and non-edible oils, animal fats and waste restaurant grease. Biodiesel is a renewable, biodegradable, cleaner, and eco-friendly source of energy.
