A Norwegian businessman wants your love handles.
I can't paraphrase this, so I'll just cut and paste and credit the afore-linked article.
Lauri Venøy wants to use the product created from liposuction to develop bio-diesel.
Bio-diesel can be produced from plant oils and/or animal fat, and the Norwegian sees the scheme as a renewable energy source, newspaper Dagens Nærinsgliv reports.
More than sixty percent of Americans are overweight and the Norwegian's firm in Miami, Florida is in the process of signing an agreement with US hospital giant Jackson Memorial. This deal would give Venøy & Co. around 11,500 liters of human fat a week from liposuction operations, which is enough to produce about 10,000 liters of bio-diesel.

combustion engines are combustion engines. They still produce greenhouse gases. Finding new things to burn does not help the environment, it only addresses the possibility of one day being without oil.
