Abstract

The potential of biotechnology in mitigating the effect of global warming due to greenhouse gas accumulation is discussed. Greenhouse warming can be diminished by partially displacing the use of fossil fuels as the primary energy source with renewable, carbon-neutral, biomass-based energy supply systems. Agricultural residues and niche markets are the most potential approaches in the near future. The availability of dedicated energy crops will have a substantial impact on the use of renewable energy.
