Please STOP expanding the wood pellet industry! There is nothing clean about it and it has been proven that burning wood pellets is dirtier than burning coal. We simply cannot afford to continue chopping down forests to make a fuel that emits insane amounts of carbon dioxide. These are the same forests that would otherwise help combat excess carbon. It takes CENTURIES for forests to regain the majority of their carbon storage after logging. Wood pellets are a FALSE climate solution.

The Ontario government needs to do better at transitioning to an economy that runs on SUSTAINABILITY and RESPECT for the future that must happen now. I urge the Ontario government to show some leadership and think about not just our children, but our children's grandchildren, and their grandchildren, and so on. This current trajectory isn't leaving much hope for the future.
