Abstract
Despite its long history, bioenergy is far below its potential to deliver more sustainable and inclusive prosperity across the globe. This report extends lessons from California energy and climate policy to show how this can be achieved. Greater attention to circular bioeconomy pathways, including biomass conversion into clean energy and carbon sequestration products, can address fundamental climate, environmental, and socio-economic challenges worldwide.
