Europe isn't going to have a tree standing after this winter.
If nothing else, more self contradictory results of enviro whacko ideas being put into actual practice.
Don’t worry. When the people are all gone the forest will re-seed itself and grow back.
It’s all a matter of Time.
Lots of space for wind turbines and solar farms ,LOL
Oh, for heaven’s sake. When you’re cutting down old-growth trees - I assume that’s what “ancient forests” means, rather than commercial pine plantations - instead of using natural gas, you’ve gone totally loo-loo.
As a joke I was going to suggest that they do that a few days ago.
I missed my chance, it’s now a reality.
California will be doing the same thing.
and when it gets really cold
they will be eyeing the dining room furniture
You’re not going to believe this but Michael Moore’s film, Planet of the Humans, does a real good job of showing the idiocy of burning trees instead of fossil fuels. His example is we are chopping down forests in North Carolina and then shipping pellets to England to power plants. Insanity.
Didn’t these sickos go after wood burning stoves not long ago?
“burning wood released more carbon dioxide than would have been emitted had that energy come from fossil fuels.”
LOLOL...the “Law of Unintended Consequences” rears its ugly head once again.
Next up: animal-hide clothing and flint-tip arrows.
Agree totally predictable. Liberal greenie weenies have no idea how much wood you have to burn to keep a house from freezing during the winter. Coal is a much better heat source and doesn’t destroy old growth forests. You need 3 to 4 cords per 1000 sq ft. So that’s a densely packed wood pile 4 x 4 x 24-32 feet coal would take about half that volume, but coal is like krypton to green energy freaks do burn more wood instead.
Forests in Finland and Estonia, for example, once seen as key assets for reducing carbon from the air, are now the source of so much logging that government scientists consider them carbon emitters.

Interesting circular logic. The trees are being logged, therefore are “carbon emitters, because they’re being logged, therefore are responsible for carbon emission, so they can be logged to remove them from editing carbon.
Good King Wenceslas looked out
On the Feast of Stephen
When the snow lay round about
Deep and crisp and even
Brightly shone the moon that night
Though the frost was cruel
When a poor man came in sight
Gathering winter fuel
Burning Biomass is not the way to go.
And I say that as someone who has a wood stove.
So unbelievably unnecessary!
ESG elites look what you have wrought.
Coal=Dead trees. Wood Pellets=Living trees. Greenism is the new nazism. Particularly in Germany. Greenism has it’s roots there in the Wandervogel movement. As did Nazism. The poor trees. Tolkien had a soft spot for trees. We all should
