These renewable resources include agricultural, forestry, and algal biomass, as well as waste. Increasing production and use of biofuel, biopower, and bioproducts would substantially decrease greenhouse gas emissions in the utility and transportation sectors and reduce US dependence on imported oil as the domestic bioeconomy grows.
