Biofuels


The big oil, cereal and automobile industries and genetic engineering groups are powerful partners in this rapidly increasing mobilization of capital and the stupefying growth of the biofuel industry.

One more reason to spread light on the underlying myths of the transition to biofuels before jumping on the already speeding train.

The five myths

1. Biofuels are clean and protect the environment

2. Biofuels do not cause deforestation

3. Biofuels allow for rural development

4. Biofuels do not cause starvation

5. Biofuels of “the second generation” are within reach
