Thats why the Diesel is rated so low via EPA emissions testing due to NOx levels.
but green house gasses my diesel is 4.70 vs 4.10 in output. Granted the hybrid is slightly lower but the diesel isn't so bad. Also Gassers emit other harmfull gasses not included in the EPA testing. During fill up gassers emit harmfull gasses or in hot temps when the tank off gasses pressure build up.
CDC diesels reduce NOx to very low levels but you need HCs to mix with NOx to form smog. Also on the PM side of things gassers after 70-80K miles will emmit more PMs than Diesel.
doesn't matter anyways power plants emit more pollutants than we do and mother nature via natural events like a volcano pollutes more than all of mankind.
Atleast once on biodiesel I won't be buying any overseas oil
just brainstorming sorry for the bouncing around alot.
