Sustainability of sugarcane production

01/24/2022

Sugar has long made the headlines around the world. Feared by some, craved by most and misunderstood by many, sugar comes in a number of forms, the best known of which is sucrose or table sugar. However, no matter what form it takes, it is one of the most important commodities in the lives of […]

Climate Solutions will Require California Creativity

11/18/2021

Successful programs like California’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard and RenovaBio remind us that not all climate answers emanate from Capitol Hill. Absent consensus on climate policy at the federal level, following the Golden State’s lead seems prudent. At this writing, two major happenings are occurring on the climate front. The first is the dwindling hope […]

Bio-based Sustainable Aviation Fuels as a decarbonization pathway

08/09/2021

The global aviation industry has set a goal of carbon-neutral growth and aims to reduce net aviation carbon emissions by 50% by 2050. 2021 marks the first year of the pilot phase. While it remains uncertain what impact COVID-19 will have on future commercial aviation, and subsequent CO2 emissions, some important lessons can already be […]

The Biofuels Revolution Coming to the Friendly Skies

07/27/2021

In the United States, cars and trucks account for the lion’s share of transportation greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), but aviation clocks in with a dangerously high 10 percent. With air travel expected to skyrocket in the coming decades, the industry knows it has a problem and that inaction will degrade both the climate and its […]

The third iteration of the Renewable Energy Directive (RED) published today seeks to lend its support to the European Commission’s Fit for 55 package and strengthen goals to decarbonise energy sources. The transport sector remains one of the most challenging to decarbonise. Despite small year on year improvements, the vast majority of the EU has […]

Expanding biogas in Brazil’s energy matrix

06/21/2021

The Brazilian Biogas Association (ABiogás) forecasts the production of 30 million m³ per day by 2030 and still, this estimate seems rather conservative. The expansion of the local biogas market means more than just economic gains, it contributes significantly to bringing the country closer to its greenhouse gas reduction targets as laid down by the […]

The Biofuture Platform on the roadmap for the global energy transition

05/24/2021

It can be said that the year 2015, when the Paris Agreement was signed, was when the world woke up to the need to do more to combat climate change, the most pressing existential challenge facing humanity today. At that time, the overall goal was set: to keep the global temperature rise well below 2º […]

You’re on mute!

05/17/2021

“You’re on mute!” No doubt this has been one of the most repeated sentences, spoken and heard, over the past year. During countless seminars and virtual meetings, the familiar alert “you’re on mute” is often spoken in unison when someone unsuccessfully attempts to express their ideas and thoughts. There is a similar feeling in a […]

RenovaBio and the UN 2030 Agenda

04/26/2021

The RenovaBio Program was established as the National Biofuel Policy in 2017. Its main objective is to ensure an adequate expansion of renewable fuels in the Brazilian energy matrix, based on more sustainable production models in line with Brazil’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement. Having an important socio-economic impact, RenovaBio enables Brazil’s […]

Sugarcane and plastics: what does the future hold?

04/06/2021

I’m often asked to peer into a crystal ball and predict the future for biobased plastics. Having worked in the industry for over 10 years and seen it grow significantly over that time, it would be easy to claim the trend is ever-upward. In reality, it’s not that easy, because the success of these materials […]

Can sugarcane drive the circular economy for plastics?

03/24/2021

Many people still see waste as the biggest challenge facing plastics, yet too often the issue of sustainable sourcing is overlooked. Building towards a net zero circular economy means developing high quality recycled feedstock, but it also requires a fresh look at how biomass could pick up some of the inevitable shortfall in virgin resin.
