D Correct answer
Explanation

EBDFCA is the correct sequence. E introduces the subject 'biofuels'. B further continues the description of biofuels. 'This fuel' in B refers to biofuel in E. 'This turnaround' in D refers to 'turnaround in global economy' of B. So, we have the EBD link. Next the negative aspects of biofuel are being described. 'However everything is not as green..' indicates that the statement F comes after D. 'These' in sentence C refers to the disadvantages mentioned in F. Last comes sentence A which sums up the passage. Thus, sentence E is the first sentence.
