This reference discusses biofuels within the context of problems associated with the world population, food production, and malnutrition. It analyzes the uses and interdependencies among land, water, and fossil energy resources in food versus biofuel production. It also looks at the environmental problems associated with these issues, as well as the implications of food shortages and serious destruction of vital soil resources. The book is enhanced with case studies from the United States, Europe, Brazil, and tropical environments that demonstrate the economic and environmental impacts of biofuel production and use.
