Growing demands for alternatives to petroleum and rapidly improving technologies will make large scale cellulosic ethanol a reality much sooner than most people may realize. As a result, agriculture and society will be transformed. This lecture will explore some of the consequences of large scale biofuel production on sustainability and the opportunity to revitalize rural areas across the world.
