The EPA is hosting a free biofuels and sustainability webinar on Tuesday, September 21, 2010 from 9:30 am – 11:00 am PST that will provide a national and regional perspective on sustainability indicators and best practices throughout the biofuel supply chain. Specifically, the webinar will discuss the guiding principles of sustainability developed by the National Biodiesel Board, and examine policy mechanisms for managing biofuel concerns.
Other topics that will be discussed include lessons learned while developing indicators for sustainability as well as how to use these indicators to assess biofuel production methods. These topics are of special interest as they will be used to assist researchers and policy makers in assessing the long-term impacts of biofuels production and use.
Presenters include:
- Don Scott: Director of Sustainability, National Biodiesel Board
- Jeff Plowman: Executive Director, Sustainable Biodiesel Alliance
- Bob Perschel: Northeast Regional Director, The Forest Guild
- Kevin Fingerman: Researcher, University of California, Berkeley
