Enviva, the world’s largest wood pellet manufacturer, is attempting a major expansion of their polluting, forest-destroying facilities across the South. They are specifically targeting South Carolina with a proposed expansion of their Greenwood facility.
The film is approximately 30 minutes long and will be followed by a Q&A with powerful activists who are standing up to the biomass industry in their communities.
Burned: Are Trees the New Coal? tells the story of the accelerating destruction of our forests for fuel. The film takes a hard look at the policies, finances, and false promises of the biomass power industry. A dedicated group of forest activists, ecologists, carbon scientists, and concerned citizens fight to establish the enormous value of our forests, protect their communities, debunk this false solution to climate change, and alter energy policy in the US and abroad.
Join us on Zoom for this virtual screening and Q&A to learn about the threats to Southern forests and communities and the solutions to protect them.
In order to receive the Zoom link, you must register through Eventbrite, linked above in the tickets. Closer to the event, we will email the Zoom link to those who have registered.
Stay tuned for the activists joining the Q&A.

From the publisher: “Winner of the North Carolina Society of Historians Award Jane Hicks Gentry lived her entire life in the remote, mountainous northwest corner of North Carolina and was descended from old Appalachian families in which singing and storytelling were part of everyday life. Gentry took this tradition to heart, and her legacy includes ballads, songs, stories, and riddles. Smith provides a full biography of this vibrant woman and the tradition into which she was born, presenting seventy of Gentry’s songs and fifteen of the “Jack” tales she learned from her grandfather. When Englishman Cecil Sharp traveled through the South gathering material for his famous English Folk Songs from the Southern Appalachians, his most generous informant was Jane Hicks Gentry. But despite her importance in Sharp’s collection, Gentry has remained only a name on his pages. Now Betty Smith, herself a folksinger, brings to life this remarkable artist and her songs and tales.”
