AEG turns Green in 2008 – Propel Biofuels to be Fish Bum 2 fuel sponsor
Portland, OR (December 13, 2007)—When AEG Media sets off to film Fish Bum 2: The Journey, this February, catching fish and sharing an adventure will not be their only goal. AEG is helping promote a new earth friendly movement that is gaining popularity across the country, biodiesel.
With an announcement today comes news of a partnership between Seattle based Propel Biofuels (www.propelbiofuels.com) and AEG. Propel Biofuels builds, owns and operates a network of biodiesel filling stations providing drivers convenient access to renewable, clean-burning fuels. The Seattle-based company was founded in 2004 to offer drivers, station owners and fleet operators a cleaner fuel choice that both reduces carbon emissions and America’s dependency on foreign oil.
While the AEG team is fueling their Suburban with a much greener and friendlier solution, Propel will monitor the decrease in CO2 emissions, achieved using biodiesel, and will compile a comprehensive report documenting the results of the trip. According to Propel, biodiesel emits between 48 to 65 percent less carbon monoxide than petroleum based diesels, and because it’s base is made from the oil of canola and soy beans, it is renewable and easier on the environment.
Fish Bum 2 is the first project AEG will film stateside after previous efforts in Argentina, New Zealand, and recently Mongolia. Filming will take place in Washington, Oregon, California, and British Columbia during the spring and fall of 2008, with plans to release the final product in December of 2008.
