Diesel has got significantly cleaner in the last 20 years and it
generates less greenhouse gases than gasoline, but with respect to
particulates and nitrogen oxides (smog) it is still 4-5 times dirtier
than today's worst gas burner.
If you have an open mind, the Union of Concerned Scientists lay out the
diesel issues rather well:

http://www.ucsusa.org/clean_vehicles...cfm?pageID=230
As for Bill, an otherwise vocal opponent of greenies and lefty enviros,
I suspect that the true source of his disdain for the diesel engine is
not so much pollution as it is that it was invented by a Paris-born
Bavarian. ;)

Yeah right..

Batteries can be safely recycled.. The damage caused by spent
hydrocarbons is not so easily eliminated..
>That'll buy a lot of gas!
And please keep up that thought.. After all many foreigners are
making a killing off of people with that attitude. And I'd like to
take this opportunity to speak as one of them and thank you for
it..it's been paying off handsomely :)

It's not going to pass the visual, but at full operating
temperature, retard the spark a little to keep the burning fuel in the
combustion chamber longer and of course stick a catalytic convert on and
watch it do it's job turning carbon monoxide (CO) unburned hydrocarbons
(HC), and oxides of nitrogen (NOx) into harmless water. Sure I'd be
cleaner than any new car test. You're so interested must mean you see a
problem with your car?
