Biomass energy generally refers to using energy from resources such as animal waste and municipal waste, or resources such as corn or sugar cane. Instead of using energy stored in large deposits under ground, biomass energy uses energy stored in the enviroment. This is a process that instead of produces more carbon actually recycles it. Example: Fuel made from animal waste is converted into gasoline (or a usuable substitute). A car burns the fuel creating CO2 and H2O (carbon dioxide and water). Plants use the CO2 and H2O during photosynthesis and create more food for animals that create more waste. The waste is used for fuel again.
