Burning wood pellets is dirtier than coal at the smokestack. While wood pellets are supposed to be made from wood waste and dead trees, we’re seeing more whole trees from across Canada, logged and exported to produce carbon loaded energy internationally.

We cannot afford false climate solutions that are marching us into planetary catastrophe while trampling Indigenous Sovereignty and crucial biodiversity.

The government needs to focus on supporting truly green energy solutions that do not emit carbon into the atmosphere, preventing deforestation and developing jobs in truly green technology.
