Oil Price Pressure Driving Global Switch to Biofuels
Worldwide momentum is gathering for a major international switch from fossil fuels to renewable bioenergy, the UN Food and Agriculture Organization said today. The move is driven in part by record high oil prices, as oil jumped to an all-time high above $75 a barrel last week. Increased global warming and the Kyoto Protocol’s curbs on emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases and a growing perception by governments of the risks of dependence on oil also play a part.
