How does the use of biodiesel help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

Dan Sharp (Green Family Expert) gives expert video advice on: How does the use of biodiesel help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?; What are some of the benefits of using biodiesel? and more...

Biodiesel reduces greenhouse gas because, although it produces carbon dioxide when it's burned, that carbon dioxide was taken from the atmosphere relatively recently by a plant that would then produce oil that was then turned into biodiesel. So, although there's tailpipe emissions that include greenhouse gases, those greenhouse gases don't increase the overall amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
