The 51st Earth Day will be observed on April 22.
So much has changed in the 51 years since the first Earth Day. People began caring about the environment after seeing the devastating effects of neglecting it. That led to action. The Clean Air Act and the Clean Water Act helped reduce air and water pollution dramatically.
While there has been a lot of positive change, there is still much that needs to be done. We are also now facing a new challenge with climate change.
Massachusetts is working to fight climate change, and improve the environment, with the goal of net-zero carbon emissions by the year 2050.
The heating oil industry has that same goal. And Cubby Oil is helping to make that happen by delivering Bioheat fuel to homes and businesses all over greater Boston.
What makes Bioheat fuel so environmentally friendly? Decades of advancement in heating oil.
While some people still cling to the outdated, inaccurate belief that heating oil is somehow “dirty,” that’s not the case. Bioheat fuel starts with ultra-low sulfur heating oil then adds biodiesels.
Cubby Oil uses locally sourced, renewable biodiesels, keeping them out of local landfills. Some of the biodiesels we use include:
By using Bioheat fuel, the greenhouse gas emissions from heating your home are dropped by 30% right from the start. In fact, Bioheat fuel emissions are lower than natural gas!
This is only the beginning of the environmental benefits of using B40 Bioheat SuperPlus. It is a more efficient heating fuel, so you can expect lower heating costs. Between the biodiesels and removing almost all of the sulfur from the ultra-low sulfur heating oil, using Bioheat fuel leaves fewer deposits on heat exchanges. That means there is less wear and tear on the parts in your furnace or boiler. You should not only have fewer breakdowns and repair bills, but a longer life for your heating system!
