You may bge right but the government and the EU do not agree. Read all about it here…
…from which I quote “An aggregate greenhouse gas saving of 70% compared to fossil fuels was achieved. This
figure excludes emissions from indirect land-use change.”
The reports to which you refer appears to concern transport biofuels of all kinds and, specifically, their production and feedstock methods, not the emissions from use.

Good. I’m glad we cleared that up.
