Turning forests into pellets to be burned doesn’t provide a green alternative fuel source that reduces carbon emissions. Research shows that cutting forests releases a lot of carbon from the Forrest and forest floor. It takes decades to rebuild those carbon stocks back to being carbon neutral and then carbon sinks. Please don’t sacrifice our forests, that also provide significant other ecosystem services (wildlife habitat, fish habitat, watershed regulation, clean water, etc), for the false claim of combating carbon emissions and climate change.
Sincerely,
Signed a Forester and forest ecologist.
