Tokyo: Japan’s important decision to avoid global climate change has come out.
According to media reports, the Japanese government has started using plant-derived biofuel in its public buses on a trial basis in an effort to make carbon-neutral society a reality.
The main event was held at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office in Shinjuku, attended by Governor Koike Yuriko.
For a month, buses on seven routes in central Tokyo will run on the fuel, which contains 20 percent used vegetable oil and biofuel made from the euglena plant, officials said. The rest of the fuel will consist of light oil.
Biofuels also produce carbon dioxide when burned, but are not considered carbon dioxide emissions, as euglena and other plants absorb it during growth, officials said.
It should be remembered that it took less than five years for Japan to convert Euglena into biofuel.
A company called Euglena undertook to produce a fuel suitable for airplanes by mixing oil obtained from Euglena, a type of moss, with used cooking oil in this factory.
