The total GHG emission reductions forecast for 2014 is 169 million tonnes carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent, which is bigger than the total GHG emissions in 28 Annex 1 countries. – Biofuels like ethanol are the only cost-effective and commercially available alternative to crude oil and are proven to reduce harmful GHG emissions and help in the fight against climate change. There needs to be stronger policies to increase their use globally, said Bliss Baker, President of the Global Renewable Fuels Alliance. The report also includes production scenarios for 2030. Based on a conservative annual growth rate of 2.8 percent biofuel production and use emission savings could increase from 168.9 million tonnes per year in 2014 to 264 million tonnes CO2 equivalent in 2030. This represents a 56 percent increase in GHG emission reductions. – This report sends a clear message to policy makers around the world that while the GHG emission reductions currently being delivered by biofuels are substantial, the sector can deliver much more, concluded Baker.
