[Sustainable-biodiesel] FW: NBB Establishes Sustainability Task Force, Solicits Applications

[Emily B. Landsburg]

Hi Folks, 
 
The Sustainability Task Force is now accepting applications for membership!
The grassroots community is an incredibly valuable part of this industry,
often defining the leading-edge. The formation of this Task Force by the NBB
is a testament to the powerful and constructive efforts of this community.
As such, whether you are an NBB member or not, I hope you will feel a sense
of ownership of this Task Force and be actively involved in the NBB's
sustainability initiatives. We're all part of the industry, and this is an
opportunity for us to make something good even better. 
 
I'll do my best to post updates to the list serves, and also wanted to let
you know that information will also be available at
http://www.biodiesel.org/aboutnbb/sustainability/default.shtm. 
 
I look forward to working together on this.
 
Emily

At the National Biodiesel Conference in Orlando the National Biodiesel Board
announced the formation of a Sustainability Task Force.  NBB Governing Board
Chairman Ed Hegland appointed Emily Bockian Landsburg of Philadelphia
Fry-O-Diesel to chair the 9-member task force.  Emily has been active in
environmental issues as a volunteer organizer of the Sustainable Biodiesel
Summit; Philadelphia Fry-O-Diesel has developed patent-pending technology to
make high quality biodiesel from trap grease, a true waste material. 

 

Ed Hegland will appoint the remaining eight seats on the Task Force.  To aid
in identifying candidates that represent all segments of the biodiesel
industry, applications and recommendations will be accepted through
Wednesday, February 27th.  

 

Please click here

letter from Emily and more information on the application and selection
process. We look forward to hearing from you; everyone is eager and excited
to seat the Task Force and begin work to ensure the long-term environmental
and economic sustainability of this industry.
