Growing trees to be subsequently burned is like mining coal that has sequestered carbon for aeons - also wood burning is deadly for asthmatics. It like the foolish project of burning food crops (biofuel) grown on land that is needed to feed the world.
All these blunders are done in the name of profit - they are to appease those who try to make us believe that climate can be addressed with minimal effect on GDP. As Einstein said: problems cannot be solved using the same methods over and over again. The neo-liberal belief that the market is the only way to solve problems has be proved false many times and has, in fact, led to the climate catastrophe we are now experiencing.
