Happy World #Biofuels Day🌱!
A geoscience reality check: biofuels can help reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, but producing them can also affect land, soil and water.
🔑The key is to use biofuels wisely while protecting natural carbon stores.

given the now newfound relevance of Kenya's port for the increased traffic volume of ships around the Cape of Good Hope, will Greenpeace's calls be ignored, or can upgrading petrochemicals really translate into envrionmentally friendly waste streams (quite unlikely)?

Top 5 Countries Leading the Way in #Hemp 🌱 😀 👯 #Cannabis Production
50,000 years ago, humans found a way to create fabric using Hemp, and ever since then, it has become one of the most widely used #plants for #industrialpurposes, all across the #globe.
Right from #textiles to #pharmaceuticals, #biofuels to #bioplastics, the usage and application of hemp as a #sustainablecrop is gaining momentum at a tremendous scale.

@BillySmith @PabloMartini @latelesley @quixoticgeek @peterbrown @Su_G While you can, of course, grow crops to convert into fuel, you're using land which could grow human food to do so, and I question the morality of that.
#Agrivoltaics are a very much better idea.

Does clearing forests in places like #Papua #Indonesia, or clearing grasslands in #Cerrado #Brazil actually help create “sustainable” transport fuel? The ecological consequences often outweigh any tailpipe emission savings. For Semafor, I explore the massive risks and hidden costs of #BigOil’s aggressive pivot to #Biofuels.

Um das Netto-Null-Ziel zu erreichen, müssen die meisten Verbrennerfahrzeuge durch Elektroautos ersetzt werden. Bei Oldtimern hingegen braucht es andere Lösungen: Wer den Originalmotor erhalten will, muss alternative Treibstoffe nutzen. Allerdings gibt es davon auf absehbare Zeit viel zu wenig.
