“Natural gas is the best fossil fuel in terms of energy output per unit CO2 emitted. Biomass is renewable b/C a new crop can be grown after each harvest, and biomass is a low carbon fuel.”

2/“How is biomass used as an energy source?
Biomass can be burned to create heat (direct), converted into electricity (direct), or processed into biofuel (indirect). Biomass can be burned by thermal conversion and used for energy. Thermal conversion involves heating the biomass

Is biomass really green?
Biomass is considered renewable because the plant material used to create it can be regrown and the carbon dioxide produced in burning it is re-absorbed by plant life, so it is carbon neutral

Is biomass energy widely accepted today?
It is used to raise steam, which, in turn, is used as a by-product to generate electricity. Considerable research and development work is currently underway to develop smaller gasifiers that would produce electricity on a

Why natural gas is the best energy source?
It burns more cleanly than other fossil fuels, emitting lower levels of harmful emissions such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrous oxides. It produces less greenhouse gases than other fossil fuels do. It

We need many irons in the fire when it comes to fuels to heat homes & buildings in winter, running power plants and fueling cars & planes. Solving energy problems is never a one-size-fits-all solution. All

7/options should be on the table. Growing Earth's forests, good forest management having green goals & growing more cotton will be hugely beneficial by enlarging the planet's collective carbon sink. The CO2 released from burning wood fuel & biomass is later sequestered by the
8/next generation forests, making forests effectively carbon neutral. Throw a log on the fire today, grow a tree that yields another log tomorrow & the CO2 released is the CO2 absorbed. Want a greener Earth?
GROW MORE TREES!! (Trees are, uh, green!) 🤩
