Please ask MEPs to vote against biofuel targets and support an agrofuel

moratorium

 

 

Dear Colleagues,

 

EU policies are creating an artificial market in biofuels, which is leading

to large-scale destructive investment across the world. Now, the EU is

debating plans to expand biofuels by increasing the mandatory biofuel target

to 10% by 2020, and two committees of the European Parliament will be voting

on those proposals during July. EU biofuel targets and incentives are

already leading to large-scale destructive investment across the world,

threatening communities, rainforests and other ecosystems, food security and

the climate. MEPs must vote against biofuel targets and instead support an

immediate EU moratorium on agrofuels from large-scale monocultures.

 

Please sign the letter to all the MEP which you can find at
