Welcome to Green Depot - San Francisco!

Green Depot - San Francisco is a non-profit, public benefit corporation, funded by an environmetal justice grant from the SF Department of the Environment. Our mission is to bring the economic, health, and environmental benefits of biodiesel to San Francisco residents, focusing on some of the neighborhoods hardest hit by toxic diesel pollution - Bayview Hunters Point and Potrero. Through our efforts as a not-for-profit education and advocacy organization we are:

  • Assisting fueling stations owners in bringing biodiesel to the pump.
  • Working with fleets owners and individual drivers to facilitate their transition to biodiesel.
  • Increasing awareness of biodiesel as an environmental justice solution for communities suffering from diesel-caused asthma, cancer, and other health problems.

    Benefits of Biodiesel:

  • Is renewable, biodegradable, and nontoxic.
  • Runs in any diesel engine with little or no modification.
  • Can be made from recycled cooking greases and any vegetable oil or animal fat.
  • Contributes to improvements in air quality and human health through significant reductions in life-cycle carbon dioxide and other harmful environmental emissions.
