This is shockingly stupid, or it would be if the “Global Warming” activists cared about what they claim to be battling.
If we burn wood, the captured carbon is released immediately. If we don’t burn wood, the same carbon is released over roughly a four year period. Choosing not to burn the wood accomplishes nothing in the long term. I burn wood in an indoor fireplace and an outdoor fireplace, and I have had leftist morons tell me that I am destroying Mother Earth. The Left is simply stupid.
The other day I mentioned to someone that I had built a fire in my fireplace. They gave me a hard time for being so anti-Earth. I said, “Wood is a renewable resource, right?”
They screwed their face up and asked, “Do you seriously believe that??”
What can one say to such people? It’s just not worth trying.
Indeed! The reason our Blue Ridge Mountains are named such is the effect that the rotting wood has in returning to the atmosphere as a gas, giving the lower atmosphere a bluish tint on warm summer days as the biomass is being converted.
