Vastly expanding sugarcane production in Brazil for conversion to ethanol could reduce current global CO 2 emissions by as much as 5.6%, according to a new study by an international team led by researchers from the University of Illinois. The carbon-related costs of converting the land to sugarcane fields were included in the analysis.

Transport activity currently contributes 23% of global CO2 emissions from fossil fuels, with the share expected to rise. The preliminary results of the project will be presented at the next ITF Summit in May 2017. The International Transport Forum (ITF) at the OECD has launched a major global initiative towards carbon-free transport.
