Greasy Rider
|
by Greg Melville
The sub-title of this engaging true story is 'Two dudes, one fry-oil-powered car, and a cross-country search for a greener future'.
The car? - a beat-up 1985 Mercedes diesel station wagon converted to handle restaurant vegetable oil grease.
The two dudes? - a journalist and an old college buddy.
The greener future? - the author (the journalist) takes on 'errands' to search out a variety of things like 'the ultimate green home' (Hint: it is not Al Gore's 10,000 sq.ft. home); 'the future of wind power'; 'the headquarters of Google; and 'whether there is such a thing as a 'green' Wal-mart'?
In addition to the central question - 'Can these two old friends drive from Vermont to California in a French fry oil car, picking up grease along the way?' - there is a second important question - 'Can they survive 192 consecutive hours together?'
The P'lovers Book club found there were times when everyone laughed out loud as a result of some of the situations these two guys found themselves in…and there were other times when we all said we learned a lot. The end result is that this is a book that entertains while it instructs…and it makes you think that there may be solutions to the environmental mess we've created.
