Why Recycling Oil Matters
Every drop of oil we recycle is a step toward cleaner cities, stronger schools, and a healthier planet.
Three Impact Areas:
🌊 1. Cleaner Sewers, Lower Costs
Dumped cooking oil clogs city pipes, causes backups, and costs millions in repairs. GreenOil helps prevent these blockages by keeping oil out of the drains.
Did you know? In some U.S. cities, over 70% of sewer blockages are caused by fats, oils, and grease (FOG).
🌿 2. Biodiesel: Fuel with a Future
Used oil becomes clean fuel. Compared to petroleum diesel:
86% fewer greenhouse gas emissions
No need for new drilling or extraction
Helps power local fleets and reduces U.S. oil dependency
🧠 3. Teaching Environmental Stewardship
We don’t just collect oil—we create learning opportunities. Students experience firsthand how everyday actions affect the environment and economy.
