#bigbadbiomass — Public Fediverse posts

@ec.europa.eu must transition from carbon-intensive trade. Biomass cuts forests, emitting more carbon than coal. We urge delegates to adopt the requests of the Biomass Action Network and stop the deforestation. #COP30 #BigBadBiomass buff.ly/C2cHVeu

#BigBadBiomass Burns Billions of public money, hurts the #climate and #nature, while masquerading as renewable energy. Read more buff.ly/aad9KgI

Wälder nicht verfeuern! 🔥 #BigBadBiomass

ROBIN WOOD mittendrin! ✊ Zum heutigen internationalen Aktionstag gegen #Biomasse-Verbrennung kritisiert das Bündnis AUSGEBRANNT das Erstarken von Holzverbrennung zur Energieerzeugung als Scheinlösung, die keinesfalls in eine klimafreundliche Zukunft führt.

#Klimawandel

In 2020, CO2 emissions from #biomass combustion (most of it wood burning) in the EU were ca. 600 million tonnes. Almost as much as the German economy that year.

But governments & energy companies can count these as 0 in the energy sector under UNFCCC rules.

#BigBadBiomass

This means energy companies burning wood are considered as not emitting anything. A huge incentive to burn more! The emissions are instead withdrawn from UNFCCC land use accounts of the countries producing the biomass.

Heute ist der globale Aktionstag gegen #BigBadBiomass!
NGOs fordern weltweit:
#UNFCC Energiegewinnung aus Biomasse stoppen!

Intakte Wälder sind grundlegend für den #Klimaschutz und die #Artenvielfalt!

BioMass/BioFuel. Oh Great. Lets just convert the whole world ecosystem into fuel. I'm sure those deer, beavers, bears and chipmunks could also be distilled down to make fuel, grrrr.

#Forest #Biomass produces a huge amount of #CO2, from when the #trees are cut down, when wood is transported overseas and finally when they burned are energy. All a threat to our #ClimateForests. Here's an explainer from Rita 👇 #BigBadBiomass
