Care to Save the World With Those Fries?

The buzz around Fields of Fuel continued at high volume Sunday, the day before the documentary's world premiere at the Prospector Square Theatre. The American Movie Channel (AMC) interviewed Josh this morning, getting a taste for Josh's passion for the biodiesel movement and taking a ride in the now-famous Veggie Van. They were joined in the van by FOF stars and Sundance Co-sponsors Kenneth Hern and Leon van Kraayenburg of Nova Biosource Fuels, and Jonathan Wolfson and Harrison Dillon from Solazyme, a California company that has figured out how to make a car run on biodiesel fuel made from algae. The afternoon saw a greasy, french-fry-smelling version of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade -- a string of FOF's biodiesel vehicles, including the Veggie Van -- make it's way down Park City's Main Street. Street Team volunteers walked along the parade route, chatting with onlookers about the film and how biodiesel works. Overheard from Park City fans: “Look, it's the Veggie Van!” “Do you smell that?” “It's making me hungry.” Look for AMC's story later this week at: http://www.amctv.com/originals/shootout
