2022-06-22 12:33:35 First Generation Biofuels

First Generation biofuels are produced directly from food crops by abstracting the oils for use in biodiesel or producing bioethanol through conventional methods like fermentation.

Crops such as wheat and sugar are the most widely used feedstock for bioethanol while rapeseed oil has proved a very effective crop for use in biodiesel.

First generation biofuels have a number of associated problems.

These biofuels can produce Negative Net energy gains, releasing more carbon in their production than their feedstock’s capture in their growth.

The most contentious issue with first generation biofuels is ‘fuel vs food’.

Biofuels from foodgrains has been blamed for the increase in food prices over the last couple of years. Open / Comment

2022-06-21 15:32:10 Major Causes of Deforestation

Shifting cultivation

In this practice a patch of land is cleared, vegetation is burned, and the ash is mixed with the soil thus adding nutrients to the soil.

This patch of land is used for raising crops for two to three years, and the yield is modest.

Then this area is abandoned and is left to recover its fertility, and the same practice is repeated elsewhere on a fresh piece of land.

This agricultural practice has become unsustainable due to rapid increase in population pressure in the forested areas. Open / Comment

TRAFFIC is an NGO (CITES on the other hand is a multilateral treaty) working globally on trade in wild animals and plants in the context of both biodiversity conservation and sustainable development.

TRAFFIC is a joint programme of World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and IUCN.

Traffic is complimentary to CITES.

The programme was founded in 1976, with headquarters now located in Cambridge, United Kingdom.

TRAFFIC’s mission is to ensure that trade in wild plants and animals is not a threat to the conservation of nature.

It investigates and analyses wildlife trade trends, patterns, impacts and drivers to provide the leading knowledge base on trade in wild animals and plants. Open / Comment
