In Manila, police forces are attempting to have police cars run on a mixture of diesel and cooking oil to counter rising prices of fuel. The mixture will contain 40% diesel and 60% cooking oil, which is to be donated by McDonald's franchises.

One vehicle has already converted to this new formula, and police forces are debating the pros and cons of converting more. Thus far, things have gone smoothly.

"It's a win-win situation for us because we will both benefit," said police chief Senior Superintendent Gilbert Cruz. McDonald's gets an effective way to recycle used cooking oil, and the police department sidesteps the outrageous cost of gasoline.
