Ontario is home to North America’s largest forest biomass-only electricity generating station. They claim that the province is a leader in the emerging green economy because of the ‘clean electricity’ produced from wood pellets, but we know that burning wood pellets is dirtier than coal at the smokestack. The Ontario government is using that as a key point to justify expanding the industry. They are intentionally deceiving the public to generate higher demand and open up new market pathways.
Using wood pellets is not a green solution, in fact, it’s a false solution. Stop this project if your purpose is to be a real leader in our futur and for our planet.
