The environmental benefits of both biodiesel and renewable diesel are in focus this week at the virtual National Biodiesel Conference and Expo.

Matt Herman is the National Biodiesel Board‘s new Director of Environmental Science. Formally with the Biotechnology Innovation Organization (BIO) and the Renewable Energy Group (REG), Herman has plenty of experience using life cycle assessment to measure the environmental attributes of biodiesel, renewable diesel, and the supply chains which support their production.

Herman helped kick off the traditional pre-conference Biodiesel and Renewable Diesel 101 session on Monday and will be leading the discussion today on Driving Decarbonization: Eliminating Emissions Throughout the Supply Chain. Learn more in this interview.
