Debate heating up on biofuels – BirdLife’s November 2010 Round Up
Biofuels are any kind of fuel derived from living things. In principle, they are a way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional fossil fuels like oil and coal. It is also estimated that emissions from burning biofuels are broadly comparable to the amount of the gas absorbed from the atmosphere when the biofuel plants are grown.
Sounds great. Right?
Sadly not. This simple story misses two important points which place natural ecosystems and poor communities around the world in great danger.
