Russel Biomass – When Green Is Not Really Green
On April 18,2009, a rally was held in Western Massachusetts, protesting the institution of six biomass plants. Jana Chicoine, a spokeswoman for the citizens against biomass said, “eighty percent of green energy is actually coming to us out of a smokestack.” A recent report testified that burning wood would release 50% more carbon dioxide per unit than coal. Biomass as an energy fuel is not as clean as it seems, awareness of this problem is growing and less citizens are willing to put their money towards biomass plants.
