| Biofpr Land Use Change: finding the middle ground As the use of biofuels have created something of a modern day gold rush for land suitable for growing crops for fuel, so the issue of indirect land use change (ILUC) has created a seemingly unbridgeable gulf. The gulf exists between those that believe ILUC will ultimately have a devastating impact on the environment and society, and those that believe concerns related to ILUC do not provide a sound basis on which to build policy. |  |
