Biofuels – Ethanol Brazil, a pioneer in bio-fuel technology since the 1970’s, has become the world’s largest ethanol exporter. More than 16 billion liters of ethanol were processed in 2006 and Brazil’s productive capability can double in the next five years. About 40% of gasoline consumption has been replaced by ethanol, and more than 80% of the cars now sold in Brazil are flex-fuel vehicles that consume either gasoline or ethanol. Doha Round The Brazilian Industry is willing to reach an ambitious and balanced agreement. FIESP’s role is to assist the Brazilian government in the identification of sensibilities and priorities in an agreement and to support technically the government, developing studies and simulations. In addition, FIESP promotes the debate among the private sector in order to assure an acceptable agreement. Enviroment The Department of Environment of FIESP is responsible for taking action on environmental issues, working as a link between the government and the private sector. FIESP supports the Kyoto Protocol and considers the achievement of its targets extremely important to enhance the sustainable growth of the Brazilian economy. From 2004 to 2006, Brazil has reduced the deforestation of the Amazon forest in 52%, which prevented the emission of 128 million tons of carbon dioxide, the main cause of global warming.
