    Back on topic. If anyone has any doubts about the the promoters of CO2 schemes being genuine in their mission to cut CO2 emissions and save the world from climate improvement, look no further than the wood burning Drax power plant in Britain. They converted perfectly fine coal fired power plants to burn wood biomass. Which comes from clearcut forests primarily in US and Canada, ground up into pellets, shipped across the ocean, hauled by train into the plant, subsidized generously, and all is done without emitting any CO2 according to the rules, therefore is green energy. At least one former politician who masterminded this is now profiting well from his new private sector job making wood pellets...
    1.They are co-firing with biomass so they didn't convert 100% as you'd like everyone to believe
    2.Some of the coal comes from Australia so lots of co2 burning miles there just like the biomass
    3.15% lower co2 emissions overall
    4.Nice try

      As usual, you missed the point completely. In the context of this thread, The bureaucracy has concluded that Burning wood does not emit CO2, Therefore a completely on sustainable practices such as this is now environmentally friendly. Where as farmers in this country Who have made agriculture multiple times more sustainable through no till, Are still being demonized by trolls such as yourself While you simultaneously support deforestation in the name of saving the planet.

      As for you link, lots of studies showin , net harm that Organic farming is causing, both CO2, CO2, actual environmental of you might want to broaden your propaganda sources.

      After all we al know that summerfallow , intensive tillage are proven methods o building soil OM...

        You managed to fool three people with your rhetoric, well done.
        6Co2+6H2o--C6H12o6+6o2
        Remember that equation from grade 7?
        Most readers see right through your bs, thanks for being so transparent That biomass is sustainably farmed, can you spell renewable? 12-15 yr cycle between tree crops, try to do that with coal
        I'm starting to see more tillage and failed crops leaving bare fields on conventional farms due to ineffective chemistry and resistant weeds than most organic farms. Just ask Bayer. The shares are tanking today again reaching 7 year lows
        In DEC 2000 they were 55, tonight they are closing around 57. What a poor investment this chemical romance.

          Perhaps until everyone on Earth is rich enough to stop having children, we will need technology of some kind to make enough food. Otherwise those without will kill those with.
          It's not a simple solution of just going organic.

            I'm surprised I fooled anyone with the abhorent grammar auto correct managed to mangle.

            So if the world is ending in 12 years If we don't end all CO2 production. What good does it do to wait for a forest to regrow when we burn the CO2 in the meantime?
