PlanetGreen.Discovery.com Lists Green Earth Technologies' G-OIL as a Top Thing to Look For in 2009 Green Cars

STAMFORD, Conn., January 7, 2009: Green Earth Technologies (Pink Sheets: GETG), a leading manufacturer and marketer of "green" environmentally safe consumer packaged goods products, is pleased to announce that their G-OIL(TM) has been chosen as one of Eric Leech's "7 Things to Look for in 2009 Green Cars" on PlanetGreen.Discovery.com. G-OIL is the world's lowest petroleum, "eco-friendly," ultimate biodegradable motor oil; and recently met and passed all the engine test criteria for The American Petroleum Institute (API) SM Certification. Tests were conducted by a nationally recognized independent third party testing facility.

G-OIL is the only sustainable motor oil chosen for the prestigious list and was selected as it is non-toxic to both humans and the environment.

"Being selected by Mr. Leech as one of the top green car products for 2009 is a true sign of the quality of our product and is only the beginning of great things to come for Green Earth Technologies," said Dr. Mat Zuckerman, President and COO of Green Earth Technologies. "2009 will surely be an exciting time for our company as we will begin to ship G-OIL to retailers and become a 'green' solution in the motor oil category,"

Unlike traditional petrochemical-based motor oils from leading manufacturers, Green Earth Technologies' G-OIL is made with renewable animal fats. These saturated fats have no harsh effects on the environment. G-OIL is also ultimate biodegradable, and the production process is three times as energy efficient than that of synthetic and crude oil.
