EBOF News Earth Biofuels and BioWillie(R) Featured in PBS Documentary
DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Earth Biofuels, Inc. (OTCBB:EBOF) today announced that the company was
featured in the weekly PBS program, “NOW”,
hosted by David Brancaccio. The segment, “From
Plow to Pump”, is a documentary which
describes the biodiesel product life cycle beginning with the cottonseed
farmer who supplies the oil for the production process to the tractor
trailer that is fueled with BioWillie®
biodiesel fuel.
The segment includes interviews with Willie Nelson and Earth Biofuels’
Chairman and CEO, Dennis McLaughlin. Additionally, it highlights Earth
Biofuels’ and the renewable fuels industry’s
continuing commitment to reduce America’s
dependence on foreign sources of energy by providing domestically
produced, clean-burning sources of energy.
“We are proud to be a part of the PBS program ‘From
Plow to Pump’”,
said Dennis McLaughlin, Chairman and CEO of Earth Biofuels. “Earth
Biofuels is working to reduce our dependency on foreign energy by
providing domestically produced, clean-burning renewable fuels for our
nation. We believe strongly in this industry’s
ability to have a significant impact on our national security,
environment, and American farmers. We believe there is a great deal of
educational value in this segment and appreciate PBS’s
work to continue to educate on this important emerging technology.”
David Brancaccio, host of “NOW”,
stated: “Lately there has been a lot of talk
about the importance of alternative energy sources in reducing America's
dependence on foreign oil. We wanted to address that issue. However,
many alternative energy projects are still in the research stage. Since
Earth Biofuels is actually marketing a retail product, that gave us the
opportunity to look at a real-world example.”
Earth Biofuels’ BioWillie®
brand is on biodiesel pumps that are currently located in seven states,
including California, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma,
Tennessee and Texas. BioWillie®
is a blend of biodiesel and petroleum diesel. The biodiesel is made from
oils such as cottonseed and soybean.
Earth Biofuels produces and distributes biodiesel fuel through the
company's network of wholesale and retail outlets. The fuel is sold
under Willie Nelson's brand name, "BioWillie®."
Earth Biofuels also produces and markets liquefied natural gas (LNG).
The Company is focused on meeting the growing demand for alternative and
renewable fuels in the domestic market. The Company's Web site is www.earthbiofuels.com.
