The article reviews the environmental impact of bioenergy production systems. Bioenergy is seen as a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels, but its production still requires a lot of resources that can harm the environment. The study shows that while life cycle assessments can help measure the sustainability of bioenergy, there are limitations and uncertainties in the data that can affect the accuracy of the results. By identifying these gaps, researchers can improve the assessment methods and make better decisions for the future.
