More concerns have been raised regarding the potential impact of biofuels. This time, it's the environmental organisation Transport & Environment (T&E) which has entered the debate.

According to T&E, the European Commission is refusing to publish the results of scientific research which indicate that the certain biofuels would generate more harmful emissions than traditional forms of fossil fuel energy.

Also according to the environmental group, a new report commissioned several years ago by the European Commission would offer a precise inventory of the deforestation (for use as cultivatable land) that biofuel production would provoke.
