It's supposed to be carbon neutral, it doesn't reduce carbon emissions

It can (theoretically) act as a carbon trap since you're not turning all biomass back into fuel, but the reality is that the process of growing the plants (including displacing native flora, fauna), etc. makes sure it's likely carbon positive still.
Way less so than fossil fuels, tho.
