PARIS, Aug 2 — Eat less sugar to preserve the planet... that’s what some Spanish researchers are suggesting after concluding a study. They advise repurposing sugar crop production for non-food purposes.

The first use sketched out is the reforestation of EU land used for sugar production. The second scenario is the conversion of sugar beet crops to bioethanol production, and the third is for the EU to export surplus sugar production while Brazil switches from sugarcane crops to ethanol production. The proposal “provides a clear example of how broad collaboration can help direct society in a more sustainable direction,” outlines study co-author Jeroen van den Bergh, research professor at ICTA-UAB.
