Dear Mr. Wassam,

 

I am adamantly opposed to the DOER biomass regulations rollback. We cannot eviscerate important forest protections.  Forests are an integral strategy to fight the climate crisis!

 

Biomass burning increases, not reduces, greenhouse gas emissions.  We must do everything we can to reduce our emissions NOW or our children will have no futures and the planet will be unlivable!

 

Withdraw the dirty DOER biomass regulations as Class I RPS!

Thank you!
