Bringing sustainability into Bioenergy- Check out the BioenergyWiki

WIKI As biofuels start making their way into national energy supply, we need to start thinking of ways to promote them in a sustainable and rational manner. The BioenergyWiki is a new collaborative website that provides information on all aspects of bioenergy and biofuels! The site is a *wiki,* which means that users can easily add to and edit the
website content and develop a shared repository of knowledge. The site is working to provide information on everything from international policy on renewable fuels
like to ethanol to information on new “energy crops” like jatropha, as
well as on the challenges of ensuring sustainability.

If you are already knowledgeable about an aspect of bioenergy, please come and share what you know with others! If you are not knowlegeableyet, visit the Wiki now!

The BioenergyWiki was developed in cooperation with the CURES network
and an international Steering Committee to serve as a tool to
facilitate the sharing of information and views from experts and others.
