Biomass: the fourth energy source

This video shows the UK experience with biomass energy and the long term objective to increase this type of energy, reducing the one coming from fossil fuels burning. This also includes new opportunity for farmers to grow crops for biomass use. The video also rises some questions of sustainability when biomass has to be taken and transported from other countries in the world.
