Environmental Impact
Our pickups do more than clear kitchen space—they deliver measurable climate benefits for Pembroke Pines and the broader South‑Florida community.
- 92,500 gallons recycled in 2024. That’s enough waste oil to fill an entire Olympic‑size swimming pool past the shallow end. All of it converted into ASTM‑grade biodiesel instead of clogging drains or landfills.
- ≈230 cars off I‑75. In CO₂ terms, last year’s recycling cut about 820 metric tons of greenhouse gases—similar to parking 230 midsize sedans for twelve straight months.
- Air‑quality boost. Biodiesel from your fryer oil contains virtually zero sulfur and burns up to 80 % cleaner than petroleum diesel, reducing particulate matter around local school zones and HOA neighborhoods.
- Waterway protection. Every gallon diverted prevents fats, oils, and grease from entering Pembroke Canal storm drains—helping maintain water flow for the C‑11 Basin and limiting algae blooms in CB Smith Lake.
- Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2) credits. Your recycled oil generates EPA RINs that count toward national renewable‑fuel targets, supporting U.S. energy independence.
- Circular economy. Local trucks collect, local plant refines, and Broward County buses burn the finished fuel—closing the loop within a 15‑mile radius and boosting regional green jobs.
What’s Next?
Our 2025 goal is to recycle 100,000+ gallons, cutting an estimated 890 metric tons CO₂e—carbon savings equivalent to planting nearly 15,000 mangrove saplings along the Broward coastline.
