No. Burning biofuel of any kind emits carbon that was recently removed from the atmosphere. So this is part of the natural carbon cycle. (Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) add extra carbon dioxide because they release emissions that have been underground for 300 million years.)

Does biodiesel slow down global warming?

Yes, the use of biodiesel slows down global warming. Biodiesel fuel is carbon neutral, that is, it releases no more carbon dioxide into the air than it takes out. Using biodiesel means that a similar amount of fossil fuel diesel is not used, so that amount of carbon dioxide is not added to the enhanced greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.


Can biodiesel help mitigate global warming?

Yes, biodiesel and any biofuel is produced from vegetation that has recently absorbed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it grew. When we turn it into biodiesel and that is burnt, it releases that same carbon dioxide. So it is not adding CO2 to the atmosphere. It is carbon neutral.Fossil fuels, on the other hand, when burnt, release carbon that had been hidden underground safely for millions of years, thus adding to the amount of greenhouses gases.
