Rowena ValmonteSantos and Claudia Ringler International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) Abstract In recent years‚ bioenergy has drawn attention as a sustainable energy source that may help cope with rising energy prices‚ but also maybe provide income to poor farmers and rural communities around the globe. Rising fuel prices‚ growing energy demand‚ concerns over global warming from GHG emissions and increased openness to renewable energy resources‚ domestic energy security‚ and

production in terms of production method and production costs if these sustainability criteria are applied. To this end‚ the Dutch sustainability demands for bio-ethanol were investigated‚ including stakeholder consultation in the Netherlands (NGO’s‚ industry)‚ and an extensive assessment of the current ecological‚ economic and social impacts of ethanol production based on sugar cane in Brazil was carried out. While the current study contains many different types of uncertainties‚ no prohibitive reasons

derived fuels by biofuels‚ like ethanol‚ could significantly decrease environmental impacts‚ besides providing gains on the socio-economic levels as well. Brazil and the US are the world’s largest bioethanol producers‚ using sugarcane and corn as feedstock‚ respectively. In the Brazilian sugarcane industry‚ large amounts of lignocellulosic materials (sugarcane bagasse and trash) are produced during sugar and ethanol production. Sugarcane bagasse is currently used as fuel‚ supplying the energy required

Economic Impact of Rising Oil Prices in Automotive Industry The rise in the oil prices plays a major role in the automotive industry. “The world consumes over 82 million barrels of oil per day (BPD)‚ with the united states taking roughly 20 million BPD” (McFarlane). Oil provides 97 percent of the transportation fuels that helps to run the cars‚ trucks and other vehicles in the nation’s highway (Heinberg). Thus‚ when the price of the oil rises‚ it clearly concerns the auto industry because the companies
