Inquiry

We could potentially use biofuels to generate 20% of the buildings energy. Biodiesel is a natural, renewable resource (such as vegetable oil) that is organically produced. It\'\'s safe for the environment, biodegradable, and produces significantly less air pollution than diesel fuel. However, the biofuel would be purchased commercially (locally), not made on-site. Would this count toward credits EA 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3?
