3.6. Air quality Environmental sustainability of sugarcane <strong>ethanol</strong> in Brazil Burning sugarcane for harvesting is one of the most criticized issue of sugarcane production system, causing local air pollution and a�ecting air quality, despite of the bene�ts of using 100% <strong>ethanol</strong> running engines instead of gasoline (Figure 9), which decreases air pollution from 14 <strong>to</strong> 49%. In order <strong>to</strong> eliminate gradually sugarcane burning, several attempts are being made. �e São Paulo Green Pro<strong>to</strong>col is being considered the most important one, setting an example for other regions and states in Brazil. Signed between the São Paulo state government (State Environment Secretariat) and the <strong>Sugarcane</strong> Growers Association (UNICA) in June 04, 2007, the Green Pro<strong>to</strong>col aimed at: • �e anticipation of the legal deadline for the elimination of the practice of sugarcane straw burning <strong>to</strong> 2014. • �e protection of river side woods and recovering of those near water streams (permanent protected areas - APPs). • �e implementation of technical plans for conservation of soil and water resources. • �e adoption of measures <strong>to</strong> reduce air pollution. • �e use of machines instead of �re <strong>to</strong> harvest new sugarcane �elds. Voluntarily 141 of the <strong>to</strong>tal of 170 sugar mills from the state of São Paulo signed this Pro<strong>to</strong>col, and recently 13 thousand sugarcane independent suppliers, members of the Organization of <strong>Sugarcane</strong> Farmers of the Center-South Region (Orplana), signed also this pro<strong>to</strong>col. �erefore the entire production chain of sugar and <strong>ethanol</strong> of São Paulo participates 100 85 CO 51 HC NO x Gasoline 0% E 22% Ethanol 100% Figure 9.
