As Canada faces more and more climate change-fuelled disasters like out-of-control wildfires and increasingly severe storms, the Houston government is quietly setting the stage to expand burning forest biomass for electricity generation under the guise of fighting climate change.
But let’s be clear: biomass is not a climate solution.
Nova Scotians see this for what it is: a way to secure more profits for corporate interests while diverting resources away from sustainable forestry and legitimate climate solutions.
Add your voice: Sign the petition telling the Houston government that Nova Scotians want real clean energy solutions, not inefficient, carbon intensive, large-scale biomass.
Let’s send a strong message to the Houston government: no more false promises. No more ignoring our communities’ concerns. No more threats to our forests, wildlife and climate. No more locking us into dead-end industries for the sake of corporate profits.
