...Garden created by Andy Cao and Xavier Perrot in Sonoma, California in 2004, with rolling hills of nylon carpet behind a fence of fishing line, were temporary installations for festivals. Others are permanent works of odd beauty commissioned by open-minded clients (see Claude Cormier's neon-pink Lipstick Forest for Montreal's Palais des Congrès) or those looking to make a lasting statement - like the fountain memorial to Princess Diana in London's Hyde Park by Kathryn Gustafson and Neil Porter.

...highest energy balance of any liquid fuel. It also has a 78% life-cycle carbon dioxide reduction. In 2007 alone, biodiesel's contribution to reducing greenhouse-gas emissions was the equivalent of removing 700,000 passenger vehicles from America's roadways. The U.S. biodiesel industry strongly opposes rain-forest destruction and nonsustainable agricultural practices. It is implementing a major initiative to enhance the overall sustainability of biodiesel production.
