Bioeconomy or biocide? Without limits to biomass use, the EU risks destroying the very biosphere it claims to protect.

Negative emissions from BECCS is a scam. You're burning decades of tree carbon, not pulling new CO₂. It doesn’t “remove” CO2 from the atmosphere, it increases it. #ClimateCriminals #BECCS #Drax

CA’s largest proposed wood-pellet plant is on hold after thousands of public comments and broad science-based opposition. The replacement wood-chipping project will be just as problematic. #climate @teampfpi.bsky.social @nrdc.org

Over 40 organisations warn the EU: certifying BECCS and biochar under flawed carbon removal rules increase CO2 emissions, not removals!
These “removals” aren’t from the atmosphere—they’re from forests.

“a colossal waste of money that actively worsens the climate crisis even with carbon capture”.

A wood‑burning plant is back in Springfield—once called MA’s #AsthmaCapital. This isn’t climate progress—it’s pollution rolling back clean‑energy gains. PFPI stands against large‑scale biomass. #ClimateJustice #CleanEnergy #EnviroPolicy

@teampfpi.bsky.social PFPI’s analysis shows how this bill is a direct attack on science, justice, and the planet.

H.R.1 is not a reconciliation budget—it’s an environmental wrecking ball.

Ends clean energy tax credits
Mandates timber extraction
Fast-tracks oil & gas projects
Slashes pollution controls
Blocks judicial review

The House just passed a monster of a bill, H.R.1 guts environmental protections, ends clean energy tax credits, greenlights land grabs for dirty energy, and slashes funding for communities hit hardest by pollution.

It’s a blueprint for climate and economic sabotage.

Logging forests for the #Bioeconomy will degrade them just like logging them for energy does. PFPI commented on the Renewable Carbon Initiative's plans to increase forest harvesting for chemicals and materials. forestdefenders.eu/the-chemical...

Logging more forests to mitigate climate change doesn’t make sense, but this could happen under the EU #BioeconomyStrategy. Scientists and NGOs have until June 23 to weigh in w/ comments to the European Commission. forestdefenders.eu/the-eu-bioec...
The EU Bioeconomy Strategy threatens forests - you can weigh in (due June 23)
The EU's forests are already in steep decline. Increasing harvesting isn't the answer.

Ho hum, another EUSTAFOR attempt to drag everyone back into the past. What do they have against using satellite monitoring of forests? (we can guess, actually...) We need a strong #ForestMonitoringLaw forestdefenders.eu/eustafor-wan...
EUSTAFOR wants to keep forest monitoring in the 1950’s
Why is EUSTAFOR lobbying against a modern and effective Forest Monitoring Law?
