According to research conducted by the Worldwatch Institute’s Climate and Energy Programme, high oil prices, a global economic rebound, and new laws and mandates in Argentina, Brazil, Canada, China, and the United States, among other countries, are all factors behind the surge in production. | Biomass UK
