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.

Anthropologist Dr. Jane Goodall narrates this story of hope as we emerge from COVID-19 lockdown.
Set to beautiful artwork created by Tom’s sister, Bee Rivett-Carnac, a noted illustrator with two decades’ experience, the poem conjures an inspiring vision of the renewed, nature-rich world that’s waiting for us as we emerge from isolation.
A former Buddhist monk, Tom has spent the last 20 years working on climate change. He is known as one of the architects of the landmark Paris Agreement, signed by 195 countries in 2015, having served as the chief political strategist at the UN.
