Hi Jessica,
i love your video. I ran a similar scenario by my workmate and he just sent me your url. your boy is one heck of a narrator. my boy and i fill up Recycline's grease car every other week. he's three, and when we play cars, they go to the grease station.
well done and I love the algae solution.
ever been to Park Slope Food Coop in your home town? We take their recycled #5s and turn them into Preserve toothrbushes and Razors.
be well. love your wheels.

What a great video! Carrick is very engaging, and his ideas are terrific. If only some more grown-ups had his vision and common sense!

We loved your video. Does your car smell like grease? How many miles to the gallon do you get? How does algae make veggie oil? That sounds like a real solution.

What a cutie and a great idea!

Vegetable oil? Algae? What's the catch? Where can we learn more?

Thank you for being much smarter than most of us...I hope you send your film out to the manufacturers of cars, buses and trucks. Such a simple idea or a couple of them... thank you again....

I am writing this from Australia where, finally, our ostrich-headed Prime Minister has recently conceded that climate change might be a critical issue after all...This is a wonderful, inspirational video - love the vegetable oil idea, love the narration and love that smiley sticker! I am going to forward this link to all of our Federal politicians in the hope that they might come to understand what a seven-year-old already does! Well done.

We can not all stop living!
The responsibility is by the individual to stop CO2 Emission. Walk to work!

Hey you guys! Well done! I watched it three times.

Loved it! Veggie Oil is one of those win-win-win solutions. Restaurants could use better oil (customers win), and save money or make money by letting it be used as fuel. Imagine a world were every drop of veggie oil was used in diesels? Video's like this can help educate people in a fun way. Thanks for producing it
