that link you supplied shows that the 1.9 liter turbo diesel gets a 1 out of 10 in greenhouse scores
Wrong. The 1 out of 10 rating has nothing to do with GreenHouse emissions. The Poor rating comes from the particulate emissions, of which the blame rest fully on the poor fuel available in the United States. If we were to be as scrutinizing with the Insight, or other Hybrids, we should add a couple hundred pounds of waste batteries as part of their toxic emissions.
noone takes into account how much diesels still pollute
We are more than aware of the common misconceptions about current diesel technology, and the lengths that we still need to go. TDI owners are probably the most interested group when it comes to reducing emissions in our vehicles. We are active in bringing retail Bio-D outlets to our areas, and are constantly writing to our legislators to mandate better fuel.
