Burning trees for electricity is a false climate solution.

Burning wood pellets is dirtier than coal at the smokestack. Biomass generating stations do not produce ‘clean energy’ - stop trying to deceive us. Whole trees are also used in the process, not only mill by-products. When you burn full grown trees they emit centuries-worth of sequestered carbon dioxide!

In such a climate crisis, we can’t afford to chop down trees, burn them, raise our carbon emissions, and have nothing to re-sequester it.
This is not a valid plan.

Sincerely,
