According to a new scientific study, the clear cutting of old-growth forests to produce wood pellets to replace fossil fuels in electricity generation releases more carbon into the atmosphere than it saves. Burning wood pellets as a method of fuel production is even dirtier at the smokestack than coal. Why is the Ontario government going backwards in supporting this harmful industry!? I urge the government to stop expanding the wood pellet industry.
