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 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 Demand for biofuels could also increase farm income
Do Biofuels Increase Greenhouse Gas Emissions? - Slashdot American farming is, by far, the largest source of domestic nitrous oxide emissions already — about 50 percent If biofuel policies lead to expanded production, emissions of this enormously powerful greenhouse gas will likely increase, too
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%
Why Biofuel Generate Greenhouse Gases? Biofuels can reduce the consumption of fossil fuels and thus reduce carbon dioxide emissions, as they are carbon neutral However, biofuels can also contribute little or no CO2 to the buildup of greenhouse gas emissions
Are Biofuels More Environmentally Friendly? The Greenhouse . . . We find that global GHG emissions decrease with increased biofuels production However, emissions reduction is higher in developed counties than in developing countries We also find that increased biofuel production increases the world Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
