“Burning wood is carbon neutral, carbon from trees is not sealed underground like oil, gas, or coal. It naturally turns to CO2 when it burns or decays, no difference.”

But, But, But ... we can’t wait the 55 years till the new tree grows. We must act now or we are doomed.

The “sky is falling” group always has these dire predictions that can never be verified.

I forgot to include where the trees get their carbon, they absorb CO2 from the air and store it as wood and leaves (in deciduous trees) . Those leaves quickly give up their carbon as they only have a short life cycle. Pelleting the leaves would be a win-win as the carbon would be put to use instead of going directly back to the atmosphere.

Please .... no facts allowed. We will have to burn that message on burning wood.

I keep 12 cords of hickory stored and replenish as its used. Power fails on a cold winter day that pellet stove is worthless as tits on a boar hog.

Stay Safe TG !!
