EARTH
Atmut Our Environment
Dear Earth Talk: I've been
hearing about the great gas
mileage for Volkswagens that
use diesel fuel. But is it better for
the environment to use diesel or
unleaded gasoline?
-- K. Cronk,
Bay City, MI
In the past, diesel fuel was
always considered dirtier than
gasoline. But newer standards
regulating sulfur content
and improved technology in
diesel engines have made
diesel somewhat kinder to
the environment. Many eco-
advocates now tout diesel as a
viable and preferable alternative
to regular unleaded gasoline.
Where diesel fuel really shines
over gasoline is improved fuel
economy thanks to its higher
"energy density": Diesel contains
more power per liter than
gasoline. Today's diesel engines
have 20-40 percent better fuel
economy than their gasoline
counterparts, which some say
more than makes up for the fact
that they also produce about 15
percent more greenhouse gases.
This greater efficiency means
that diesel engines emit less
carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide and fewer hydrocarbons
than gasoline engines.
Diesel's downside is that it
emits larger amounts of nitrogen
compounds and particulate
matter (soot) that can cause
respiratory problems and
even cancer. .The California
Air Resources Board (CARB)
attributes 70 percent of that
state's cancer risk from airborne
toxins to soot from diesel cars
and trucks. Nationwide, studies
have shown a 26 percent
mortality increase for those living
in soot-polluted areas.
But diesel's dark side is getting
a little brighter, thanks to new
technologies such as Mercedes-
Benz' BlueTEC system (now used
in many VW, Audi and Chrysler
diesel models) that filters
particulates while improving
overall engine performance. The
Diesel Technology Forum (DTF),
a trade association of carmakers,
engine builders and petroleum
distributors, reports that
technologies now commonplace
in new diesel engines reduce
the tailpipe output of particulate
matter by as much as 90 percent
and nitrogen oxides by some
50 percent compared to diesel
engines on the road just a
decade ago.
"The industry has made
significant strides in recent years
to develop diesel systems that
are cleaner and more efficient
than ever before," reports DTF.
"Thanks to state-of-the-art
engines, cleaner-burning fuels,
effective emissions-control
systems, and advancements in
the fuel injection system, it would
take 60 trucks sold today to
equal the soot emissions of one
September 1, 2010
1988 truck." U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) data
shows that airborne diesel
particulate levels fell by more
than 37 percent during the 1990s.
Meanwhile, continually
improving fuel efficiency
standards in the European Union
(where the majority of new cars
purchased in many member
countries use diesel fuel) are
forcing carmakers to design
more fuel efficient, less polluting
vehicles around the world. After
all, there's no sense in designing
better engines for one region with
high standards and another for
areas with less stringent rules.
Another green benefit of diesel-
powered engines is their ability
to run on plant-derived biodiesel
instead of petroleum-based
diesel. And in the near future
consumers may be able to shop
for new diesel-electric hybrid
cars now on the drawing boards
of major automakers around
the world. For now, consumers
looking to buy a new or used
car--diesel or otherwise--can
see how different models stack
up in regard to efficiency and
emissions via the FuelEconomy.

Paying Tribute On 9/1 1 By Helping Others
(NAPSA) - The anniversary
of: September 11 is a day of
hi:story, emotion and reflection
fo,r most Americans. Over the
la:st nine years, this day has
al:so come to symbolize the
resilience, kindness and unity
of our citizenship, inspired
by the outpouring of goodwill
throughout the nation in the
months following the attacks.
Americans pulled together in
countless ways after 9/11 to
help each other and revive our
national spirit. And it is that spirit
that infuses our remembrance of
9/11 each year and inspires us to
serve our neighbors in our own
communities every day.
September 11 is now a
National Day of Service and
Remembrance, a result of
federal bipartisan legislation
passed and signed into law by
President Barack Obama in
2009. Establishing 9/11 as a
National Day of Service was
the culmination of years of work
by the nonprofit MyGoodDeed,
on behalf of many 9/11 family
members and organizations that
sought to create this forward-
looking observance to forever
remember the lives of those lost,
pay tribute to the many who rose
in service, and honor the brave
soldiers who serve our country
at home and abroad every day.
"Our ultimate goal is to
establish a permanent legacy of
service and compassion that will
forever honor the 9/11 victims
and heroes," said MyGoodDeed
President David Paine. Paine

founded the organization in 2002
with close friend Jay S. Winuk,
the brother of 9/11 rescuer Glenn
J. Winuk, an attorney, volunteer
firefighter and EMT who died in
the line of duty when the South
Tower of the World Trade Center
collapsed.
This year, the 9/11 Day
of Service initiative is being
promoted by a public-private
partnership of organizations
that includes the Corporation for
