Brazil’s government on Monday unveiled a series of incentives to spur
the production and sustainable use of biomethane, a fuel that can be
obtained from recycling urban and rural waste, and that can replace
natural gas, diesel and gasoline.
The plan earmarks over 7 billion reals (1.4 billion US dollars) to
spur biomethane output, and is expected to generate at least 6,500
jobs in building and operating 25 new plants in six Brazilian states.
Minister of Environment Joaquim Leite signed the decree creating
the National Methane Emissions Reduction Programme, also known
as the “Zero Methane” plan.
“The ‘Zero Methane’ programme treats waste from cities and
rural areas, such as waste from poultry farms, pig farms, sugarcane,
dairy and landfills,” said Leite.—Xinhua
