Subject: Withdraw the biomass regulations rollback
Dear Mr.
Wassam,
George Woodwell, a founder of the nonprofit Woods Hole (Mass.) Research Center, a founding trustee of the Natural Resources Defense Council and a founder of the Environmental Defense Fund drew early attention to the dangers of climate change and is considered a global warming expert.
Woodwell and other scientists claim: "And while
forests are renewable, it could take 100 years after cutting before they’re
able to again absorb the same levels of carbon, said Woodwell,"
Biomass is simply not an option at this critical juncture
on our planet.
Withdraw the
biomass regulations rollback!
Thank you!
