Towards a biomass sustainability framework: Feedstocks and products

UK Government recently opened a public consultation that seeks views on the development of a common biomass sustainability framework. As part of its planned response to the UK Government consultation, the Supergen Bioenergy Hub is running two webinars to make widely available some of the research around biomass sustainability, and to highlight some of the practical issues involved.
