A dirty industry aims to cut down our forests and pollute nearby
communities for profit.

TAKE ACTION: Help save more of America's forests from being
turned into fuel!
The dirty energy industry wants to bring wood pellet biomass to
California.
Biomass is the process of cutting down carbon-capturing forests
and turning them into wood pellets to be shipped abroad and
burned for fuel. This harmful industry has already devastated
communities in other states like North Carolina and Mississippi,
where nearby residents have faced a slew of health problems, from
heart disease to lung damage.
Help us mobilize massive nationwide opposition to dangerous wood
pellet biomass — make your voice heard now. ( [link removed] )

Dear NRDC Activist,
The wood pellet biomass industry has been an unending nightmare
for residents in the Southeastern United States.
Imagine waking up to a layer of wood dust
covering your house, yard, car — everything in sight. It’s not
just an ugly view; wood pellet biomass production brings health
problems, including asthma, heart disease, and lung damage — most
often to low-income and communities of color that are already
overburdened by environmental harms and pollution.
That same nightmare could now be headed
for communities in California — and we need your help to stop it.
Make your voice heard! ( [link removed] )
Biomass involves cutting down
carbon-capturing forests, processing them into wood pellets, and
shipping them overseas to be burned as fuel. Not only does this
increase climate-warming emissions, it sacrifices nearby
communities and wildlife habitat to do it.
Golden State Natural Resources (GSNR)
aims to build two industrial-scale wood pellet production
facilities in California, one in the north and another in the
Central Sierra Nevada Mountain range.
The company also wants to construct a
storage and export terminal in the city of Stockton, which has
some of the highest pollution burdens in the state. Residents
here are already disproportionately impacted by previous
environmental hazards — the last thing they need is more
pollution or potential fires and explosions that can accompany
wood pellet storage and export terminals.
The proposed biomass facilities also
threaten the habitat of gray wolves, Sierra Nevada red foxes,
great gray owls, and other wildlife already at risk. Their forest
habitat would be cut and relied on heavily by the biomass energy
industry, even though the industry claims to only use “waste”
wood.
Here’s the kicker: The company is
attempting to promote these destructive operations as a climate
solution.
Fortunately, California officials are
inviting public comments on this disastrous proposal.
NOW is our
best chance to stop dangerous wood pellet biomass and defend our
health and environment. ( [link removed] )
We must remain committed to real clean
energy solutions like wind and solar power and effective climate
resilience — solutions that clean up our air, protect wildlife,
and improve residents’ health, not bring more climate-busting
pollution.
Help us mobilize massive nationwide
opposition to this climate-destroying plan — please submit your
public comment today. ( [link removed] )
