Biofuels May Not Be Answer To Climate Change

According to the New Scientist biofuels are supposed to save our planet from climate catastrophe, but they could be doing more harm than good!!! 12 million hectares are currently devoted around the world to biofuel cultivation - such as maize, rapeseed and palm oil. This figure will grow as oil becomes more costly and biofuels supposedly emit fewer greenhouse gases. But new studies are beginning to question the logic of jumping on the biofuel bandwagon.
