Biofuels explained Biofuels and the environment - U. S. Energy . . . Burning biofuels results in emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2), a greenhouse gas However, according to international convention, CO 2 emissions from biofuel combustion are excluded from national greenhouse gas emissions inventories because growing the biomass feedstocks used for biofuel production may offset the CO 2 produced when biofuels are
Biofuels Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Myths versus Facts Biofuels burn cleaner than gasoline, resulting in fewer greenhouse gas emissions, and are fully biodegradable, unlike some fuel additives Cellulosic ethanol has the potential to cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 86%
Environmental sustainability of biofuels: a review Biofuels are being promoted as a low-carbon alternative to fossil fuels as they could help to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the related climate change impact from transport However, there are also concerns that their wider deployment could lead to unintended environmental consequences
Biofuels and the Environment - US EPA Replacing fossil fuels with biofuels has the potential to reduce some undesirable environmental impacts of fossil fuel production and use, including conventional and greenhouse gas (GHG) pollutant emissions, exhaustible resource depletion, and dependence on unstable foreign suppliers
Biofuels and Greenhouse Gas Reductions – Farm Energy Biotech companies and others have claimed that crop yield improvements will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by making farmland more productive, meeting the world’s food and fuel needs with fewer acres, and reducing pressure to convert forests to farmland
Biofuel - MIT Climate Portal Biofuels can be used as replacements for petroleum-based fuels like gasoline and diesel As we search for fuels that won’t contribute to the greenhouse effect and climate change, biofuels are a promising option because the carbon dioxide (CO 2) they emit is recycled through the atmosphere
Do Biofuels Boost or Hurt Greenhouse Gas Emissions? A recent report, drawing on a vast body of research, challenges the conventional wisdom, suggesting that the expansion of biofuel production – particularly in the U S – may be contributing to higher greenhouse gas emissions instead of lowering them The Unintended Consequences of Green Policies
