The world is on the verge of an unprecedented increase in the
production and use of biofuels for transport. The combination of
rising oil prices, issues of security, climate instability and
pollution, deepening poverty in rural and agricultural areas, and a
host of improved technologies, is propelling governments to enact
powerful incentives for the use of these fuels, which is in turn
sparking investment. Biofuels for Transport is a unique and
comprehensive assessment of the opportunities and risks of the
large-scale production of biofuels. The book demystifies complex
questions and concerns, such as the food v. fuel debate. Global in
scope, it is further informed by five country studies from Brazil,
China, Germany, India and Tanzania. The authors conclude that
biofuels will play a significant role in our energy future, but
warn that the large-scale use of biofuels carries risks that
require focused and immediate policy initiatives. Published in
association with BMELV, FNR and GTZ.
