“Clean Diesel”

The Volkswagen fraud and subsequent fiasco is exposing the lie we've all been served to the consuming public by automakers that are claiming to offer “Clean Diesel” in their products.

To me, “Clean Diesel” has always been an oxymoron. Diesel is a source of particulates that are polluting our environment day in, day out and, should probably be outlawed. Yes, there's a clean alternative to this low-grade combustible and that's natural gas, which, for the moment, is both plentiful and cheap.

I'm glad the American Environmental Protection Agency pulled the lid on Volkswagen cheating practices and that the German firm will pay the right price for its deception!
