The nations of Asia and the Pacific are being urged to study the issue of biofuels with greater care before deciding on how they will use their agricultural products to generate energy.
Scientists say there is an urgent need to support the current rush toward major decisions on biofuel policies in Asia and the Pacific with solid research and unbiased information about their potential benefits, impact, and risks, according to the Philippine-based International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) after a conference which ended on 29 August.
Pretty general if sensible stuff. Hattip to Green Car Congress.
