UK university launching graphic novel looking at bioenergy and climate change

In the UK, a new graphic novel addressing the big questions around bioenergy and climate change is being launched by The University of Manchester ahead of a major conference this week.

In a unique collaboration between artists and researchers working at the cutting-edge of bioenergy, the graphic novel aims to answer some of the big questions such as what is bioenergy, does growing biofuel compete with growing food, and does bioenergy really reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

It is aimed at a general audience: a handy and accessible guide for the bioenergy industry and policymakers to use in promoting the benefits and addressing some of the controversies around the subject, but also accessible for school-children.
