Biodiesel Production Line Holand 177 scientists send open letter to economic minister Erik Wiebes, urge him to prevent what grain crop is included an European Union for biology fuel of the foundation to be able to develop agenda continuously.
Scientists say in the letter: ” uses the biology fuel that is based on crop is not the accurate method that solves a problem, we entreat you pressingly to admit to join grain crop fuel to be able to be opposite climate nature and community are caused play havoc with. ”
They point out, the research that has for European Union committee makes clear, this kind of mixture fuel can bring about greenhouse gas discharge capacity to increase, the discharge capacity of average carbon dioxide of the biology fuel that comes from grain crop is fossil fuel it is 1.8 times. Palm oil is biology fuel of the foundation to be able to cause 3 times carbon dioxide discharge capacity is fossil fuel.
They still say: ” in addition, if policy of this European Union is carried out, also meet those who create oily to the plant demand increase, because this also can increase a demand to farm. To satisfy this one requirement, selva, the flimsy ecosystem such as the prairie is in the onefold cultivated land with vast translate into. So final meeting brings about the forfeiture of biology diversity, increase drought, the flood, land degrades, surface water pollution, faintness of coastal water area and cay degrade the odds that waits for a circumstance. ”

Fuel of use grain crop also forces commissariat to rise in price, can make proper commissariat produces pressure to rise. The farmer is met more and more support international big company.
These scientists come from Holand each universities, the university of made of baked clay He Ninggen that also includes to attach most importance to a dot with agriculture among them.
European parliament is passed last month will can last biology fuel is brought into can last the new target of the sources of energy, ministers will be in this month later on the summit discusses this issue on the meeting.
