http://www.gwm-tv.com - A leading British economist has said that Brazil's transformation from the world's fifth greatest polluter into a leading low-carbon economy is a model for the rest of the world to follow.
Nicholas Stern, who wrote the 2006 report outlining the monetary costs of climate change, said Brazil is a leading biofuels producer, and will also lead production of second-generation biofuels. He said the region will be an 'engine of change' for tackling carbon emissions.
He also said that good forest management will provide optimum conditions for sustainable fuel production while its coastline will provide abundant manrine-sourced biofuels, such as seaweed.
