Operating through more than 20 formal, and many less formal public-private partnerships (PPP), Nestle works with agricultural producers and governmental and non-governmental agencies to deliver innovative solutions to water management and sustainable farming practices in developing countries. Nestle set up the Shuangcheng milk production facility in Heilongjiang Province, north-east China, in 1987. It is the largest facility of its kind in Asia and ranks fourth in the world in terms of annual dairy production in the Nestle Group. In 2005 Nestle entered into a PPP project to promote the sustainable production of Robusta coffee in Viet Nam. Together with the Neumann Kaffee Gruppe and GTZ, the German-based international cooperation enterprise, the company implemented a pilot project for be...

That prompted me to contact the ceo of Saab," the ambassador recalls. "I asked him if this great car from Sweden, which runs on ethanol, is available in the U.S. He said no and explained some of the reasons why. I told him that doesn't make sense to me. There are many people in the u.s. like me who would like to reduce their carbon footprint, who would like to make a more responsible decision on a car, they'd like to have the option of a car which runs on ethanol, so we worked with him through his internal General Motors process, with the assistance of the Departments of Energy and Transportation. As a result, the Saab 9-5 BioPower car will be available for sale in the U.S. next year.

Given the sharp rise in crude oil prices and growing awareness of climate change, the potential of biofuels, particularly of bioethanol, has become an ubiquitous topic of public debate and has induced ambitious policy initiatives. The latter are mostly paired with protectionist measures as the examples of the European Union and the United States show, where domestic producers of energy crops are put at an advantage thanks to subsidisation, direct payments and/or favourable tax schemes. Moreover, the EU is working out a mandatory certification scheme for ethanol imports, imposing social and environmental standards which constitute another hurdle for more efficiently produced ethanol originating in the Southern hemisphere. A similar path is taken by Switzerland's revised mineral oil tax l...
