“Die EU fördert systematisch das Abholzen & Verbrennen unseres Waldes.“ Klare Worte & dramatische Befunde bei Markus Lanz von Journalist Marcus Engert (min.47). Morgen muss die #EU im finalen Trilog zur #RED die Reißleine ziehen! zdf.de/gesellschaft/m… #StopFakeRenewables 1/2

A policy aimed at burning 🔥🌳trees in power plants to SAVE the climate 🌍?? This is unacceptable and patently absurd! We demand that policymakers take forest #biomass out of the Renewable Energy Directive Romina Pourmokhtari Ebba Busch #trialoguenegotiations #StopFakeRenewables

“Does the Commission agree that the criteria in the proposed revision of the RED will not ensure that forest biomass reduces net emissions compared to fossil fuels? If it does agree, what provisions will help to ensure a net reduction?” Asks Michal Wiezik MEP eur05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

EU Council is making a dangerous mistake promoting forest #biomass - one that will put actual climate action out of reach. #StopFakeRenewables euractiv.com/section/biomas…

EU countries must stop undermining biomass policy reform - Policymakers please, take forest #biomass out of the Renewable Energy Directive Romina Pourmokhtari Ebba Busch #trialoguenegotiations #StopFakeRenewables euractiv.com/section/biomas…

Yes this would be a terrific mistake towards our #climate, our #forests and our #biodiversity ! How it is possible that this simple logic is not understood by the member states ?!? 😱 lina burnelius #LULUCF #RED Markus Pieper

@AnnaDeparnay Markus Pieper With #RED taxpaying citizens are literally bankrolling for burning up our sinks! Since #RED started in 2009 CO2-emissions from #biomass combustion have increased by 50% while Europe’s land sink has degraded - to a large extent due the additional logging pressure & RED incentives

Heute in Brüssel: Umweltorganizationen protestieren vor dem EU-Parlament. @sweden2023eu muss beim #Trilog fair im Namen der EU-Länder verhandeln und sich für die Wälder einsetzen!🌳#StopFakeRenewables #BiomassoutofRED

. European Parliament European Commission we count on you to stand your ground during tonight’s #RED trilogue. Biomass burning is harmful to the climate, environment and human rights. In this existential crisis, we cannot afford the EU to further fuel the flames. #StopFakeRenewables

Today the EU concluded the #RED negotiations. We are extremely dissapointed to see that it will allow the further destructions of forests in the name of 'Climate action'. How often must we repeat that burning wood and food for energy is NOT carbon neutral?

Dänemark wird oft als Musterland angesehen, was die Biogasproduktion angeht. Aber was steckt tatsächlich dahinter? Und welche Rolle spielt industrielle Schweinezucht dabei? Wir haben uns die Zahlen etwas näher angeschaut. blogs.nabu.de/biogas-daenema…

Percentage-wise Denmark has the highest share of biogas in Europe. Which often makes it regarded as a model country in this area. In reality though, this model is entirely dependent on industrial pig farming that is a disaster for nature and animal welfare.

90 NGOs in Japan and overseas have released a joint statement calling on Japan to take measures against co-firing biomass in coal power plants or conversion of coal power plants to dedicated biomass power plants. Read more: foejapan.org/en/issue/20230… Friends of the Earth Japan (English)

On #StephenLawrence30 this beautiful poem by Josephine Corcoran reminds us we have much to do in the pursuit of true diversity, equality and justice. However I am proud to say Colvestone Primary School we do teach about Stephen, his legacy and the inspiring work of Doreen Lawrence OBE FSA Colvestone
