Question

Write any two ways in which energy plantation is useful to humans and environment.

Answer 1

1. Energy plantation greatly benefits humans and the environment. The fuel wood may be used either directly in wood-burning stoves and boilers or processed into methanol, ethanol, and producer gas.
2. Energy plantations absorb a significant amount of carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide released when burning these woods is less than that from burning fossil fuels. The consumption of trees for firewood or other fuel will be lower if we cultivate energy plantations.
