Tristate Biodiesel Is featured in a film called FUEL, that we are very proud to be a part of. Fuel is a vitally important film- an award winning documentary that is gaining national interest. FUEL - is now on the Oscars® short list for Best Documentary. Fuel is being released to the public in NY on Feb 6^th. Prior to its release we have scheduled two screenings in NYC by invitation only and I would like to invite your participation to either one of these. Seating at these screenings will come on a first come first served basis. If you are unable to make the screening please go and see this Film in the theaters - The Film is worth the price of admission –you’ll be disappointed if you don’t.

“FUEL is Dynamic and persuasive, It’s a must-see, and not just for environmentalists.” – Tom Keogh, Seattle Times

“watch the film, learn from it and make it happen” – Damian Vaca, MTV Movies.

“It is a Masterful Film” - Paul Hawken

FUEL is the right Film at the right time and we need your support to make a difference in the world.

Please join us for One of these special events in NY, including a Q&A forum with distinguished panelists.

If An Inconvenient Truth showed us the problems, FUEL provides us with the solutions and comes at a time when every one of us feels the imperative to rebuild our economy and when our newly elected administration is at hand with the political will to make the true shift to green -deciding where to focus its priorities and resources at what President Elect Obama believes to be the biggest economic recovery plan since The New Deal.

Directed by environmentalist Josh Tickell, featuring … to list a few - Ken Caldeira, Dickson Despommier, Van Jones, Robert Kennedy and Tri-State Biodiesel, FUEL and it’s team is on the verge of creating a groundswell of support that can galvanize the population and send a message to our leaders that “It's time for a change”.

FUEL’ is a film about national security and sustainability that is having an enormous impact on audiences, inspiring environmental activism for a renewable energy economy The success of FUEL will certainly help to guide the economic recovery towards real sustainable businesses rather than green-washed technologies such as “clean-coal” or Fords new 30 MPG dinosaur. In addition THiNK GREEN has been invited by Secretary General of the United Nations Intergovernmental Renewable Energy Organization (IREO), to host a screening of FUEL at the United Nations, UN headquarters Building in New York City with leading delegates.

We have received an official stamp of approval from Greenpeace, The Dove seal and The EMA Green Seal who currently view this film as one that their constituencies will find of national importance.

With your help, FUEL will help focus the nation, but it won’t happen unless people see the film.

NOW is our opportunity for our voices to be heard and here is how you can be a part of this incredible movement that is about to begin – by making this film a resounding success!

We have scheduled a number of events to build awareness about the film and it’s important message about the green energy future for our nation and our world.

These events are by invitation only.

"FUEL achieves something few activist or environmental documentaries have done, which is to win you over. The audience at the opening was the choir, and although it was immensely popular and received a resounding ovation from them, it will play in Alabama and North Dakota too. It is not a polemic but a story, a story based on strong beliefs. Without losing its conviction, it allowed each of us, expert or newbie, to find our own way with the material, united all along by the charm of the narrator and director, Joshua Tickell. It is a masterful film." – Paul Hawken

AS President Elect Obama says: "This victory alone is not the change we seek. It is only the chance for us to make that change. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were”.
