The Biodiesel Ambassadors are volunteers who support biodiesel, and use their biodiesel expertise to raise the level of understanding in their communities and nationally. They come from a wide array of professions, and include fleet managers, academics, government workers, scientists, petroleum distributors and more. Individuals become ambassadors at the invitation of the National Biodiesel Board, which oversees the organization.
Mission Statement
The mission of the Biodiesel Ambassadors program is to ensure biodiesel’s greatest champions stay informed on biodiesel issues, have the tools they need to succeed in educating others on the benefits of biodiesel, and are given opportunities to spread the word.
