That's cellulosic, second generation biofuels from prairie grass.

Oil s monopoly over transportation can in part be destroyed by electrification (via plug in hybrid electric vehicles, for example), and also by second generation biofuels, such as butanol from cellulosic feedstocks, and by algae and waste based biofuels.

Biofuels. Liquid biofuels are renewable transport fuels made from plant materials.

And it can come from biofuels.

Biofuels are fuels that are grown.

If you go to corn or cellulosic ethanol, you'd actually increase the death rate slightly.

Biofuels as a source of energy in Europe.

We talk about biofuels that haven't been invented yet.

For example, cellulosic ethanol, to power the entire U.S. vehicle fleet, this is how much land you would need.

The EU biofuels directive,3 adopted in 2003, is concerned with the substitution of conventional oil derived transport fuels, diesel and petrol, by biofuels derived from agricultural crops.

In the United Kingdom, for instance, four government departments cover biofuels.

Due attention was also given to biotechnology, advanced materials and biofuels.

Don't let me skip over that. Better biofuels are a really big deal.

Biofuels were recommended as one of the technology options that required further investigation.

Thailand and countries such as Brazil are now actively promoting the use of biofuels.

Biofuels offer some 60 per cent carbon dioxide saving on their fossil fuel equivalents.

The main advantages for the United Kingdom in producing liquid biofuels include the following

The use of biofuels means that less land will be available for food production.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the European Union (EU) biofuels directive.

And who would have thought that scientists trying to cure malaria could come up with breakthroughs in biofuels?

Parties are also considering other forms of renewable energy, such as solar, geothermal, wind, biofuels and related technologies.

In addition, measurement data for biofuels and data on two stroke engines were expected, but not yet available.

(d) The fact that biofuels are biodegradable, and are ideal for inland waterways and other environmentally sensitive areas.

New projects such as those related to biofuels should be open to the participation of all interested countries.

Biofuels policies in the US and the European Union have led to the creation of biofuels industries with significant output capacity mainly ethanol in the US and biodiesel in the EU. In the US, government policy mandates 48 billion liters of ethanol in 2011.

And then another six can be made robustly, competitively, from cellulosic ethanol and a little bio diesel, without interfering at all with the water or land needs of crop production.

We've now formed a company called Amyris, and this technology that they're using can be used to make better biofuels.

There is a lack of understanding and awareness among the general public about renewable opportunities arising from biomass, heat and biofuels.

Biofuels come in two forms biodiesel used as a fossil fuel diesel substitute and bioethanol used as a fossil fuel gasoline substitute.

They are willing and able to produce biofuels and have the potential to produce much more than what they are already producing.

The South African study proved that the production of biofuels would not reduce food production in African countries, but rather would increase it.

So, if all goes well, they're going to have designer bugs in warm vats that are eating and digesting sugars to excrete better biofuels.

UNDP and UNEP also support South South cooperation initiatives in biofuels in the Caribbean region, in collaboration with a number of Latin American partners.

a In the context of Renewables 2004, renewable energy sources and technologies include solar energy, wind energy, hydropower, biomass energy including biofuels, and geothermal energy.

In order to encourage farmers to use biofuels as a response to climate change, Governments must help to provide access to the necessary infrastructure and markets.

In the United Kingdom, the latest research shows that 70 per cent of CO2 emissions can be eliminated by utilizing current technology biofuels from crops.6

(v) Promote research and development in the field of utilization of wood products, biomass and biofuels, as well as on the role of forests in the carbon cycle

6 See The Environmental Case for Liquid Biofuels , a briefing note by Dr. Bruce Tofield and members of the CRed project at the University of East Anglia, October 2003.

A distinct area of consideration includes opportunities for promoting trade in products derived from the sustainable use of biodiversity, in particular through the BioTrade Initiative, as well as the BioFuels Initiative.

3 Directive 2003 30 EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 8 May 2003 on the promotion of the use of biofuels or other renewable fuels for transport.

Hydrogen or biofuels may be part of the future solution in this area, and ethanol and biodiesel in particular have promising prospects for making a major impact in the coming decade.

Biofuels were subsidized by another 19 billion, with essentially no climate benefit. All of that money could have been used to improve health care, hire more teachers, build better roads, or lower taxes.

Fiji had taken full advantage of the presence there of donors, UNDP and other United Nations entities on the ground to pursue the implementation of its projects, including a major project on biofuels.

These prices are not unique to Europe. China pays 38 per ton of CO2 avoided with wind power, for example, while the US pays around 600 for cutting a ton of CO2 with biofuels.
