Statement of EDF Agriculture Policy Specialist Britt Lundgren on New EPA Biofuels Regulations

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

“EPA today answered Congress’ call to tackle the tough job of calculating greenhouse gas emissions from biofuels. We welcome EPA’s commitment to using the best available science to evaluate emissions, and its effort to keep the rules grounded in current science as our understanding of the issue evolves. We also welcome the news of the Obama administration’s new strategy for supporting development of a range of second- and third-generation biofuels that will bolster our energy security, protect the environment, and create American jobs.”
