Overview
This book is devoted to the biodiesel industry, its limitations, and the evaluation of the full manufacturing chain to allow making conclusions for further improvements. In 2016, total energy investment was more than $1.7 trillion, shares of oil and gas were $649 billion, and those for renewables (transport and heat) were $19 billion. G20 nations responsible for more than three-quarters of global GHG emissions contributed an average of $71.8 billion/year of public finance for fossil fuel projects and only $18.7 billion/year for renewable energy. The adverse effect of fossil fuel subsidies is to divert the use of public funds from other necessary expenses such as social spending, health, clean energy, and energy access for the poor. Termination of these subsidies can reduce GHG emissions by 21% and deaths caused by fossil fuel air pollution by 55%. However, it will be a difficult decision as the world oil demand will increase to
