Diesel exhaust... good or bad for you?
Hi,
I need to do a project for a green engineering class, in which I am going to focus on the diesel trucking industry, with regards to its pollutants, pollution control, future of the process (diesel engine), etc. I can find a lot of things from the EPA saying that diesel exhaust causes lung cancer, but I am having a hard time finding good things about diesel. I know there are a lot of sites out there praising diesel (the warden's article for example is a good one), and also articles arguing the EPAs claim that diesel exhaust is carcinogenic, etc.
I know I used to find a lot of articles liek this, but after searching for a while, I am only finding the bad stuff.
If anyone has any links they can think of or know of off the top of their heads, Id really appreciate having them posted here.
I think I happened upon articles like those which Im looking for previously because I didnt have any real search in mind, so I stumbled on them. Now that I need them, I cant find them, but they would be really useful to get the full story on diesel for my project.
Any help is most appreciated.
Thanks
JMH
