Preface

The aim of this book is to provide texts about water-related issues arising through biofuel production, especially in response to climate changes. Major focus is on sustainable availability of clean water. It demonstrates the associations among biofuel, water and climate changes especially focusing on interdisciplinary connections that outstandingly update and enhanced understanding, deliberation and responsiveness across such disciplines. To entice readers from different disciplines, the book offers broad perspectives on diverse aspects of climate changes impacts on water availability for present and future biofuel production. All the chapters are in-depth to highlight the relevant aspects. Major types of biofuel have been discussed to provide comprehensive compilation of relevant practical information on several aspects of biofuel, water and climate changes. The present book serves as a useful quick reference for every person involved in biofuel production or having interest in wat
