Regenerative Energie
The use of pure plant oils (PPO) as a transportation fuel has a number of advantages not only compared to fossil fuels, but also compared to other bio-fuels:
1) PPO can be produced with simple technology directly on the farm, thus permitting (a) new economic activities along the entire fuel production chain for the farmers themselves, (b) co-use of oil cake as protein-rich animal food, thus replacing soy imports and meat-and-bone meal, thereby reducing the risk of spreading the bovine spongiform epidemic, and (c) closed regional economic, energy and material flow loops. 2) PPO is non-toxic and not dangerous for the environment, i.e. the optimum fuel for use in water protection areas. 3) PPO has a high flash-point and therefore is explosion-proof, i.e. it is a very safe fuel permitting for a simple logistics. 4) Emissions from PPO used in suitably adapted motors are lower than diesel motor emissions. 5) If produced through mixed-cropping, PPO is a by-product of food production and does not require separate agricultural land for its production. The yield of the food component however is stabilized or even increased.

Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
