SUMMARY:BURNED: Are Trees the New Coal? the movie expose of biomass burning
DESCRIPTION:BURNED: Are Trees the New Coal? \nThe movie exposé of biomass burning.  NS suffers terribly from this!\n“This film elicited a powerful and passionate response from our audience this year with many saying they had no idea about this issue and its devastating impacts. BURNED reveals the shocking destruction of our forests for fuel and the resultant rise in carbon emissions that exceed those of coal-burning.”\nAudience Choice Award\, American Conservation Film Festival Committee\n \nBURNED tells the little-known story of the accelerating destruction of our forests for fuel\, and probes the policy loopholes\, huge subsidies\, and blatant green washing of the burgeoning biomass electric power industry.\nBURNED is a feature-length documentary\, which takes an unwavering look at the latest electric power industry solution to climate change. The film tells the story of how woody biomass has become the fossil-fuel industry’s renewable\, green savior\, and of the people and parties who are both fighting against and promoting its adoption and use. \nThrough interviews with activists\, experts\, and citizens\, along with verité-style footage shot across the U.S. and in the EU and UK\, the film interweaves the science of climate change\, the escalating energy-policy disputes\, the dynamics of forest ecology\, the biomass industry practices\, the conflict between jobs and trees\, and the actions of activists and citizens who are working to protect their own health\, their communities\, the forest\, and the planet’s climate. \nWoven together\, the various stories present an intimate and visceral account of what is at this moment in time a critical\, yet mostly unknown\, national and international controversy. \n  \nWednesday\, November 28\, 7:30 PM. Sanctuary of St. Luke’s United Church\,\n5374 St Margarets Bay Rd.\, Upper Tantallon\n FREE ADMISSION with a “Pay-what-you-can” option \n \nIntroducing the film and leading the post-screening discussion will be Ray Ploudre: Ecology Action Centre’s Wilderness Coordinator. \n\nTrailer at <https://burnedthemovie.com/take-action/>   \nWe will offer home-baked goodies\, Paul Barry’s deluxe lemonade\, coffee and tea\, etc.  \n This screening is a pilot for a series of evening gatherings examining issues related to Climate Change and What We Can Do About It.\nThe evenings will be solution oriented. \nCo-hosting organizations currently are:\n \n\nSt. Margaret’s Bay Stewardship Association \nFive Bridge Wilderness Heritage Trust\n Woodens River Watershed Environmental Organization \nTransition Bay St Margarets\n\n  \n\n
