The EU is very proud of its renewable energy projects and in Germany up to 40% of electricity is produced from renewables. But what they usually don’t mention is that more than half of that is from biomass and the majority of biomass is actually wood chips, i.e. wood pellets made from trees. In fact trees are chopped down in North and South America (i.e. Amazon) to produce those wood chips, which are then burned in former coal plants.
Obviously, burning wood puts as much CO2 into the atmosphere as burning coal, but in addition large numbers of trees are chopped down. The idea that this is renewable energy is completely idiotic, it would take 20 – 50 years to regrow those trees.
So far the US is not doing this on the same scale, until Build Back Better.
Watch Planet of the Humans (fwd 52:15) to see who is behind those idiotic biomass projects in the US.
