POWERED BY PLANTS - Earthrace
In March 2008, Earthrace will attempt to set a new speed record for a powerboat to circumnavigate the globe running 100% biodiesel, and with a net zero carbon-footprint, in order to increase awareness of the environment and the sustainable use of resources.

It is a showcase of environmentally friendly technologies such as low-emissions engines, non-toxic anti-foul and efficient hull design.
