Increasing the supply of low-carbon alternative fuels is a basic strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The use of conventional biofuel—mostly corn ethanol—increases net GHG emissions even with a 20% lower carbon footprint than gasoline. Advanced biofuels with 50% CI generates no net change in GHGs. —Hill et al.
