The government says biofuels are needed to help keep the lights on and to meet greenhouse gas emission targets.
Sarah Boyack (Labour) asked why Scotland is falling behind the rest of the UK on the Kyoto greenhouse gas emission targets.
Cellulosic ethanol uses non-food feed stocks with significant greenhouse gas emission reductions, and the first commercial-scale plant is being built today in Soperton, Ga.
However, in order to meet European Union greenhouse gas emission standards, Poland is planning to switch a substantial part of its electricity production from coal to natural gas.
History suggests that such a perception is an invitation to aggression, making war more likely and adding further, albeit utterly unquantifiable costs to the potential bill associated with greenhouse gas emission control regimes.
At the annual meeting of the Carbon Disclosure Project--a non-profit investor organization devoted to greater transparency in greenhouse gas emission statistics--Sun released a set of open-source software tools that companies can use to track carbon emissions.
The company also has a program, called Exelon 2020, that will make Exelon's operations more efficient and lower the company's carbon footprint by more than 15 million metric tons in greenhouse gas emission each year by 2020.
But for the CDM to provide that link, countries will have to reduce their greenhouse-gas emission targets drastically, thus providing a boost to demand.
What would such levels imply in terms of greenhouse gas stabilisation concentrations and emission pathways required to achieve such levels?

Greenhouse gas (carbon) emission for these vehicles also must fall by 34 percent from the 2016 levels by 2025, according to the California Air Resources Board.
FORBES: California Sets New Rules To Boost Zero-Emission Car Sales
An executive order signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) in June 2005 established short- and long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reduce targets for California: to reduce GHG emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and 80% below 1990 levels by 2050.
FORBES: How Will California Slash Greenhouse Gas Emissions 80% By 2050?
Under Kyoto, the developed countries committed to cutting their greenhouse gas emissions by varying amounts, which averaged out to a 5.2% reduction below 1990 emission levels.
