- Biomass - Methane Reduction in Europe (European Communities)
Provides information on European efforts at cost-effective reduction of methane, one of the main greenhouse gases that are increasing due to human activity. Suggests alternative treatment of biomass is important. In order of cost-effective importance, the study recommends three methods. First, divert biodegradable waste from landfills and use alternative treatments, such as composting or incinerating. Second, collect and burn landfill gas. Third, oxidate landfill gases.

- Biomass Resources (EERE.Energy.gov)
"Biomass technologies use renewable biomass resources to produce an array of energy related products including electricity, liquid, solid, and gaseous fuels, heat, chemicals, and other materials. Bioenergy ranks second (to hydropower) in renewable U.S. primary energy production and accounts for three percent of the primary energy production in the United States." 01-06

- Ethanol from Biomass (Wired.com)
"Commercializing biomass-to-ethanol technology would also have international political ramifications, according to Datta. Producing 2.4 million barrels of ethanol per day would 'be a $40 billion per year transfer of wealth from the Middle East to our farmers,'he said. Federal funding of biomass-based ethanol should be less controversial because 'instead of six states benefiting, everyone benefits.' " 01-06
