Hello councillor Maxfield
Why are public vehicles not already using paraphenetic fuel that is being used in Holland by all their public vehicles? It’s made by Shell. It’s emissions are h20 and you could drink it (not that you want to). It works in Diesel engines and is freely available. We need to recycle and use what we have instead of creating yet another mountain of waste. It might not be palatable to reuse Diesel engines but they were designed to pretty much run on anything – why don’t we maximise that and provide options for council’s who are already under the cosh financially. Just a thought.
