Many hopes are linked to the generation of energy on the basis of renewable vegetable raw materials. - The trade in biomass, however, produces serious collateral damages in the countries of the South: The depredation of rain forests, violent displacements, the expansion of monocultures, the dependency of small farmers, the triumphal procession of genetic engineering, the use of food plants to create energy as well as the renewable monopolies of transnational corporations.
The Center for Investigation and Documentation Chile-Latin America (FDCL) therefore wants to contribute with this project to the current debate on the “global energy market� from an internationalist perspective [more].
