The 20th Century was the warmest century in the last 1,000 years and the 1990s was the warmest decade in the last 100 years.

There is now general agreement that GHG's arising from human activity are affecting the world's climate, resulting in changing weather patterns and more frequent extreme weather events.

Two major and growing sources of GHG's are transportation and the methane emitted from decomposing biomass in landfills. Methane has a 23 times greater warming effect than carbon dioxide.

LOSONOCO delivers substantial reductions in GHG's. The acid hydrolysis process itself represents a massive 90% saving over petroleum refining. The use of Fuel Ethanol in FFV engines represents a saving of up to 50% in carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and particulates over petroleum and the elimination of biomass from landfill dramatically reduces methane production.
