Please stop cutting trees to make wood pellets. Burning wood pellets is even more harmful to the environment and public health than burning coal. Using wood pellets (or coal ) to produce energy is irresponsible and shows the lack of scientific and health knowledge on the negative effects on people and the climate by the people who promote that kind of industry. We must reduce the use of trees in general as trees are essential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
We must reuse and recycle as much as possible products made with trees. I am always shocked to see how much good materials is thrown out when people do renovations. These materials should be recycled and reused as much as possible.
It's the responsibility of our politicians to show the way and take measures to stop the waste. Forests are essential to our survival on this planet. Stop wasting this essential resource.
