Something that encourages or perpetuates this country's highly mechanized and centralized agribusiness is not in the books for me. I don't care if this oil were 100% proven to be 3 times better than full synthetic oil - Consideration must be made for how much energy went into producing the animal fat. There's no way we could come out on top with this - the farm industry causes way more problems than it solves, and greenwashing bull**** like this can only make things worse for us, better for agribusiness. I am willing to elaborate, but please read up on it or watch "Farm, Inc." or something. Pushing for this oil is as foolish as pushing for ethanol. Yes, we're still getting raped by oil, but I prefer to be raped by as few industries as possible. I still have to figure out how I feel about that recycled oil... +they don't have any 0W
