- Bioenergy is an essential component of most proposed pathways to reduce anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and limit global warming to 1.5 or 2 °C by middle to late century (1–6)
- Here we assess the effects of the RFS on US land and water resources during the first 8 y of the policy’s implementation (2008 to 2016) by integrating econometric analyses with observed changes in agricultural land use and models of biophysical impacts.
