This is the report of the project Analysis of Environmental and Social Impacts of Bioethanol Production in Brazil, funded by UK Embassy, in Brasília, with funds of the UK’s Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra). The main target of the project is the evaluation of ethanol production in Brazil from the point of view of sustainability, considering environmental, social, and economic aspects. The analysis was based on literature review, in some cases interviews with different stakeholders and, for some aspects, primary research. Primary research was conducted regarding land use change, both concerned to direct and indirect impacts, socio-economics impacts at regional level, and the balance of greenhouse gases (GHG). In order to set the priorities, sustainability principles and criteria currently under discussion in some European countries, mainly UK, and by European Union have been analysed.
