Money Programme: Green Fuel Gamble

9th March 2008
The Money Programme this week covers the controversial issue of bio-fuel subsidies and the environmental costs and benefits.
“Biofuels are being touted by governments, oil companies and car manufacturers as a green solution to our fuel problems. In two years five per cent of all the fuel sold in the UK will be Biofuel. But critics say it’s actually environmentally damaging and growing crops like corn and sugar cane for fuel diverts land from food production. The Money Programme’s Libby Potter meets the businesses and consumers who have invested in the so called green fuel and investigates what’s at stake in the battle for a greener future.”
