Thank you for your question.
Just to clarify, regarding the life-cycle analysis that the NRC completes, it's typically related to developing tools for industry and other government departments to make decisions on specific scenarios for biofuel production relative to a baseline. Often the baseline would be fossil fuels, so specific applications of our life-cycle analysis are related to utilizing feedstock for biofuel production to make decisions on what the best orientation of technologies would be, rather than making more global estimates of what the impact of changing the sector would be, which I believe Environment Canada has better information on.
