Conference on the Ecological Dimensions of Biofuels
Conference on the Ecological Dimensions of Biofuels Hosted by The Ecological Society of America Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center Washington, DC March 10, 2008 __=20 Production of fuels from plants and agricultural and forestry wastes can reduce both society's dependence on fossil fuels and net emissions of atmospheric carbon dioxide, the major contributor to global warming. Expanded use of this bioenergy requires assuring that its production and consumption are truly sustainable. __ Conference Highlights: 500 attendees will hear invited presentations by leading scientists on: * sustainable development and use of biofuels; * social, biogeographic, land use, and biodiversity considerations; and, * ecological dimensions of alternatives for crop selection and production, harvest and transport of product to refinery, and refining of liquid fuels and other co-products. The conference will conclude with an evening social featuring additional poster presentations and opportunities for attendees to network with presenters and others working in this important field. Full details, including an agenda, registration information, and sponsorship opportunities, will be available soon at http://www.esa.org/science_resources.
