    are outstanding and there is no maximum limit to your investment. There are two distinct programmes

    that you can invest in:

    GreenOil Leases

    GreenOilTrees

    The Leasehold programme does have some initial legal fees

    there is also a small annual ground rent of 50 per lease.

    and no annual charges: what you see is what you get. Theprogramme manager contracts to manage your trees and to

    purchase your produce from you.

    You have the added satisfaction of knowing that you are helping to eradicate third world poverty and

    creating employment, whilst also saving the planet from greenhouse gases.

    Sustainable employment reduces pressure on charitable capital and promotes political stability. To under-

    line the demand for green oil, many governments worldwide have set ambitious targets for its usage. The

    EU, for instance, has a target of 10% of all diesel fuel sold at the pumps to be biodiesel by 2020. To put that

    in perspective, their target for 2010 is 5.75% and current achievement close to Zero - so theres still a mas-

    sive opportunity. Recent press articles and television programmes have extolled the virtues of Jatropha:

    To underline the importance of the Jatropha tree, the Indian government has set aside 11 million hectares

    Executive Summary

    As well as income, the lease investment can also produce capital growth. Indeed, it is suggested that

    There is no limit to your investment, subject to availability.

    Although the typical life of a Jatropha tree is 35-50 years, the leaseholder will have all their trees replaced

    Introduction

    (about 500), as you are entering into a 99-year lease, and

    Oil Trees programme there are no set-up fees, no legal fees,

    None of these are particularly onerous. However, In the Green

    The minimum investment in the Leasehold Programme is 15,625. This buys a 99-year lease on a 5-hectare

    (using the Crude Oil Lease Mineral Rights model) the value of the lease could have trebled within three

    years.

    (approximately 12.5 acres) plot of land with 12,500 Jatropha trees already planted.

    as and when necessary, to ensure a full 99 years return on their investment.

    promises and governments throughout the world are planning enormous plantations. The great things

    about this tree are:

    Its an oil seed tree.

    It produces very high quality green oil.

    It has a very high yield 1,500+ litres a year per acre

    A single tree can produce 600 to 1200 new seedlings a year.

    A single tree can produce 1.5 litres of green oil per year.

    It can also (from the residues after crushing) produce nitrogen-rich

    It will only grow satisfactorily within the Tropics (+/- 30 latitude)

    -

    able rate is 600-1200 new seedlings per single tree per year.

    For the remaining 35 to 40 years of its life, the tree is used for producing oil. Each tree can (conservatively)

    produce 1.5 litres of high quality oil per year.

    What is Jatropha?

    fertiliser, medicines and latex.

    so is ideal for farming in poverty-stricken regions.

    Wheat

    Wheat crops can produce biofuel. Concerns are over how much is needed to feed an expanding popula-tion, and whether food will be diverted to fuel. A new wheat-based fuel renery in the UK may consume

    more than the national harvest surplus. Food prices would be pushed up, aecting developing countries,

    and plans have met with criticism. An environmental charity said, Using wheat for fuel involves the

    displacement of agricultural land used for food production. At the end of that chain you need to create

    new farmland and that means cutting down forests.

    Solid biofuels

    product known as a pellet. There are growing concerns that solid biofuels emit considerable amounts

    of pollutants. The process to create the pellets also uses a signicant amount of energy, requiring the use of

    fossil fuels, meaning solid biofuels can not be considered sustainable on their own. They are also expensive

    to produce.

    Rapeseed

    Rapeseed oil is a popular biodiesel, mainly due to its ability to produce a high oil yield per unit of land area.

    However, concerns have been raised about its eectiveness in helping the climate. In fact, rapeseed oil

    biodiesel has been calculated to actually produce up to 70% more greenhouse gases than fossil fuels. This

    is because manufacture of the plant generates emissions of nitrous oxide, which is 296 times more power-

    ful as a greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide (Atmospheric Energy and Physics, The Times, 2007).

    Algae

    Algae is a third-generation biofuel, which means that, similar to jatropha, it is not taking much-needed

    crops out of the food chain.

    The concerns with algae are its cost. One study found that capital cost, labour and operational costs by

    themselves are too high for algae biofuels to be competitive with conventional fuels. The United States

    Department of Energy estimates that if algae fuel replaced all the petroleum fuel in the United States, it

    would require 15,000 square miles, roughly the size of the state of Maryland (USDA, WashingtonPost, 2008).

    Alternative Biofuels

    Examples of solid biofuels include wood, grass cuttings and agricultural waste processed to produce a fuel

    Barack Obama, US President, brings a welcome breath of fresh air (literally) to the international arena. His

    countrys somewhat dilatory approach to the global warming issue has made it precious few friends in the

    recent past. Specic Obama policies, which will raise international awareness as well as tackling the USAs

    problems include:

    Reduce Carbon Emissions to halt climate change

    Global climate change is the most important environmental issue facing the planet today. Obama supports

    implementation of a market-based cap-and-trade system to effectively reduce carbon emissions 80% by

    2050.

    Lower the amount of carbon in our fuels

    Obama will establish a national low carbon fuel standard requiring petrol companies to reduce the carbonin motor vehicle fuels 10% by 2020.

    Invest in Renewable Technology

    Barack Obama will require that 20% of the electricity consumed in the US is derived from clean, sustainable

    energy sources.
