A British research report shows that biofuels are more polluting than fossil fuels.

2010-05-18

According to a report in The Times on March 1, a recent study published by the British government shows that so-called green biofuels are more polluting and more harmful to the environment than fossil fuels.

The report shows that, according to the Renewable Transport Fuels Regulations, the UK Department for Transport plans to sell 3.5% green fuels of all fuels this year, with the proportion increasing annually to 13% by 2020. However, this will lead to the deforestation or burning of millions of hectares of forest, releasing large amounts of greenhouse gases.

The study concluded that even the most advanced biofuel technologies fail to meet the European Commission's minimum sustainability standards, which require burning at least 35% less greenhouse gas emissions per liter of biofuel compared to fossil fuels. The study also showed that palm oil would increase greenhouse gas emissions by 31% because it releases significant amounts of greenhouse gases when forests and grasslands are converted into arable land. Similarly, rapeseed and soybeans also fail to meet this standard.

E4tech, a consulting firm investigating the impacts of biofuels on forests and other undeveloped land, found that Indonesia's palm oil industry has become the third-largest emitter of carbon dioxide, causing Indonesia to lose an area of rainforest equivalent to that of Wales each year. Furthermore, the report found that the entire European biofuel industry requires $5 billion in government subsidies annually, and this sector would be severely impacted by changes in land use patterns.
