Biofuels: response to the EU public consultation

June 22, 2007

The European Union should scrap its volume target for biofuels and replace it with low carbon targets for all transport fuels according to environmental NGOs BirdLife International, the EEB and T&E in a response to the European Commission public consultation.

BirdLife International, EEB, and T&E welcome this consultation and its focus on the sustainability of biofuels. We appreciate the political priority the Commission is giving to this issue, and believe that it is essential that a practical, effective means for ensuring biofuels are produced sustainably and deliver significant and proven GHG emissions is developed.
