Sustainability Task Force
The National Biodiesel Board is the trade association representing the US biodiesel industry as the coordinating body for research and development. NBB's membership is composed of biodiesel producers, state, national, and international feedstock and feedstock processor organizations, fuel marketers and distributors, and technology providers. NBB has established a Sustainability Task Force to guide its membership in ongoing efforts to assess and improve environmentally, economically, and socially responsible biodiesel production.
One of the goals of the Task Force is transparency. To that end, minutes from weekly meetings are posted here. You can sign up to be notified when new information is posted to this web site. You can also join the discussions by visiting the sustainability forum on the All Things Biodiesel Exchange Forum.
