Bertzky, M., Kapos, V. & Scharlemann, J.P.W. 2011. Indirect land use change from biofuels production: implications for biodiversity. JNCC Report, No. 456.

This JNCC-commissioned report highlights biodiversity impacts of indirect land use change caused by biofuel production. Increased demand for biofuels to achieve renewable energy targets is putting pressure on biodiversity worldwide. The research highlights a new and so far little understood threat: the impact of indirect land use change on biodiversity.
