Isn’t burning wood pellets is dirtier than coal at the smokestack and aren’t many Canadian provinces including Ontario logging whole trees from primary forests to meet the growing demand for wood pellets? Fact - we simply can’t afford to keep chopping down forests to make a fuel that emits immense amounts of carbon dioxide. Moreover, it can take centuries for forests to regain the majority of their carbon storage after being logged.

Let’s do the right thing and go with high tech geothermal, SMR - small modular nuclear or other truly sustainable energy production. Modulate grid with storage systems like compressed air battery storage etc. Be smart the world is heating up and you want to cut down the lungs.
