Implications of biodiesel-induced land-use changes for CO2 emissions: case studies in Tropical America, Africa, and Southeast Asia

Biofuels are receiving growing negative attention. Direct and/or indirect land-use changes that result from their cultivation can cause emissions due to carbon losses in soils and biomass and could negate any eventual greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction benefit. This paper evaluates the implications of l...
