The Greenpeace Guerrilla Garage is an abandoned garage which has been occupied and refurbished by Greenpeace volunteers. Greenpeace will be dispensing thousands of litres of free green fuel to motorists from 10.00 am - 5.00 pm today.

The Greenpeace Guerrilla Garage is at 309 - 313 City Rd, on the corner of City Rd and Remington St (N1), 5 - 10 minutes walk from Angel tube station.

Greenpeace is giving away thousands of litres of free green fuel to motorists today at a refurbished 'guerrilla garage' on City Rd in North London. The Greenpeace Guerrilla Garage will be dispensing bio-diesel - a plant-based fuel that is identical to ordinary diesel but only causes a fraction of the damage to the climate. Bio-diesel is widely used in conventional diesel engines in Germany and is guaranteed totally safe for British motorists. Bio-diesel is not commercially available in the UK despite the fact that Britain exports vegetable oil to France for bio-diesel production.
