You and I and all of us who live in the woods of MA know that our trees and forests are not biomass for burning as much as they are life-providing sources of oxygen and clean air and water. They provide homes for more life forms than we are yet aware and solace for those who commune with nature. They must not be logged under the guise of woody biomass being a form of clean energy, because they are not! We who use wood stoves know that this is unsustainable in the long run and actually suffer the consequences in our own backyards. Let's not pollute the whole earth with more smog, particulate matter and greenhouse gases when these trees could be saving us from distinction due to the warming of our planet!
