Biodiesel: The Good and the Bad

Investigating Biodiesel: The Good and the Bad Sides
post by Jim Bashkin at Chemistry for a Sustainable World

There are good and bad sides to biofuels, as Jane Goodall points out. I will explore this in detail in a series of articles that express my opinion and cite scientific reports or discussions. First, a bullet-point summary of key points is given below.

Much of the good/bad duality of biofuels has to do with the following questions:

* Where do the biofuels come from?
* What are we destroying in order to generate biofuels?
* What are we consuming in order to generate biofuels?
* What are we failing to produce in order to generate biofuels?

To find out more on this subject and to finish the the rest of the report on biodiesel, read James Bashkin’s “Biodiesel” published at Chemistry for a Sustainable World.
