Abstract
Road transport, fuelled almost exclusively from finite reserves of fossil fuels, currently accounts for around 25% of greenhouse gas emissions in many European countries. The introduction of low carbon biodiesel could help deliver the necessary emissions cuts however, EU partner countries can only grow a portion of the feedstock required to deliver a secure, low cost supply of biodiesel. Philip Wood, Chief Executive of D1 Oils plc, suggests that Europe will also need to look to the developing world for its biodiesel supplies, and that this could offer a significant opportunity for agriculture in developing economies.
