Do BECs threaten forests?

 http://news.mongabay.com/2007/1106-carbon-negative_becs.html

(11/06/2007) A proposed mechanism for generating carbon-negative bioenergy
-- an energy source that reduces atmospheric carbon dioxide levels -- could
drive large-scale deforestation in the tropics and undermine efforts to
conserve forests for carbon offsets says a biofuel expert, Laurens
Rademakers.

Reactions?

Thanks,

lou
