🌱 Dubai's Youth-Led Climate Movement
Fry it. Fuel it. Fix it.

Used oil
becomes clean
fuel.

We collect used cooking oil from Dubai's restaurants and communities and turn it into biodiesel — powered by students, for the planet.

The Process
How it works.
1

Restaurants & communities save their oil

Popeyes, JBR restaurants, Al Barari residents, and more collect used cooking oil instead of dumping it down the drain.

2

Our student team picks it up

Dubai school students across the city organise regular collection runs — no adults required. Youth-powered logistics.

3

BioD & Lootah convert it to biodiesel

We hand the oil to our partner companies who convert it into clean-burning biodiesel fuel using their refinement facilities.

4

Less pollution. Real results.

Every litre diverted prevents harmful dumping and reduces carbon emissions — tracked live on this site.
