When Michael Moore released Planet of the Humans in 2019 the Green Movement was up in arms. A key theme of the film is how bad burning wood chips as fuel is, especially when they come from harvested timber and are shipped round the world.
Now the Green ‘think tank’ Ember is saying how bad burn wood chips is:

Are people slowly starting to realise the many fallacies about ‘renewable energy’?
A quite profound quote I saw on another website:
“Climate Change has Destroyed Environmentalism”
As long as it claims to reduce CO2 emissions and is ‘renewable’ you can cut down as many trees as you like, destroy as much landscape as you like and create as much mining pollution as you like. If it helps an already rich person to get rich so much the better.
My usual disclaimer: I accept that the climate has changed, is changing and will continue to change. We should try to reduce our impact on our planet and minimize our consumption of finite resources.
