Governments from Europe and the United States see an important answer for the climate problem in the stimulation of biofuels. An easy answer, as the partly replacement of fossilfuels by biofuels demands large changes in our transportsystem and way of living. But the largescale stimulations of biofuels causes the chopping down of forests to make a way for plantations in palmoil, soy and sugercanes. The environmental and social consequences are immense, moreover because the prices of foodproducts will be under pressure as the demand for biofuels increases.

Profundo researches which companies are involved with the production of and trade in biofuels and who finances them. Profundo also analyses the consequences for humans and the environment caused by the government stimulations for biofuels.
