Biofuels changed his audience. After bringing music to the masses, green start-up owner converts his mission to bring alternative fuels to your car
Jeff Phillips – a D.I.Y Kind of Guy
By Jeff Phillips, Biofuel Engineer and LuxEco Advocate
My name is Jeff Phillips and I run D.I.Y Biofuels in Los Angeles.
I was once in the music biz, and was doing pretty well for myself, until I became more educated about the startling environmental problems that we are currently faced with.
So I basically left the rat race of the music industry after doing some research of my own into alternative fuel technology. Films like ‘An Inconvenient Truth‘ and ‘Who Killed the Electric Car‘ particularly affected me.
I want that to still be around when my little one is grown and has his own little ones.
Why is biodiesel so important right now? It’s simple. We basically have an infrastructure to sell it already. What we don’t have is a model for hydrogen or electric cars. I mean, I am hoping that in future there will be a better and more efficient structure for electric cars, but in the meantime, we simply have to find other ways to deal. And that’s where we come in.
Watch for more on this space in the coming months.
Thanks!
