Biofuels have been promoted as a clean and renewable alternative to the often-dirty oil industry.
In Peru, the initial promotion of biofuels focused on encouraging private investors to comply
with the obligatory mixing schedule established by the government; but this effort gave insufficient
attention to the social and environmental impacts that energetic crops can have in a country [...]
A recent government report says the US could easily produce more than a billion tons of materials to make biofuels each year – and it wouldn’t impact our food supply. Researchers at UT’s Institute of Agriculture are working on ways to produce biomass and alternative fuels.
