This book asks whether there is any place for agrofuels in a low-carbon future. François Houtart argues that the green potential of agrofuels has been wasted by businesses that put profits above environmental protection. This has led to the absurd situation where an energy source that should be sustainable actually increases human and ecological damage, simply due to the profit-maximising decisions of capitalists rather than a flaw in the concept of agrofuels. Students of development studies and environmental economics will find that this book offers an interesting new perspective on the future of energy."-- Publisher website. 546 Translated from French. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Energy crops industry.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh86000972 650 0 Energy crops|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85043133|xEnvironmental aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005383 650 0 Energy crops|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85043133|xEconomic aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005484 650 7 Energy crops industry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /910032 650 7 Energy crops.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/910027 650 7 Energy crops|xEconomic aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/910028 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Bawtree, Victoria,|d1934-|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n96052586 776 08 |iPrint version:|aHoutart, François, 1925-|sL'agroénergie.
