On biofuel and CO2
-
In 2017, a group of 177 scientists in the Netherlands signed an open letter urging the government to stop including biofuels from food crops on the EU's sustainable development agenda. The reason is that when you take into account the area required to grow these crops, as well as handle and transport the crops, they emit on average 1.8 times more CO2 than fossil fuels. Dutch scientists also noted that crop biofuels increase the demand for vegetable oil and food crops, as well as destroy biodiversity.
