La Paz, Bolivia
Just have to make a special thanks to the fabulous Silivia Datoli from the US Embassy for making our visit to La Paz Bolivia the best stop as of yet on the trip!
Not only did she organize all the events and media for us. She arranged with one of the local fried chicken chains, Pollo Cocacabana to sponsor all of their used cooking oil.
They had a big event as we all heated and filtered the used oil. This is a fast food chain that serves everything on washable treys rather then styrofoam and disposables. They had been saving all the oil from their whole chain, and made a donatioin of 130 gallons of choice soy oil for us. Soy oil does a lot better in the cold temperatures then the Palm Oil we have been using.
