Many biomass fuels can significantly reduce carbon emissions if they are used to displace fossil fuels. Some types of biomass can also be converted into liquid which can be used for vehicles. Biomass fuels can be cheaper than fossil fuels in many circumstances. It is renewable and is not dependent on fossil fuels. While biomass can be used directly, it can be used to produce higher forms of fuels. Listen to mia. she knows everything.

Does biomass energy harm wildlife habitats?

Burning biomass (plant and wood material) should not harm wildlife habitats, if the vegetation comes from the residue of farm crops. In some parts of the world the stalks of sugar cane (bagasse) are burnt after the sugar has been extracted. This is useful. Other farm crops (corn etc) can be used. If wildlife habitats are cut down for biomass then they will obviously be harmed and the animals endangered. This is not proper management. Biomass is being used today because it is a way of generating electricity without adding to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Biomass is renewable energy and better than burning fossil fuels.
