Burned Virtual Film Screening: South Carolina Forests
Jul 7 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm
Online

Image may contain: outdoor, text that says 'JOIN DOGWOOD ALLIANCE FOR A SOUTH CAROLINA FOCUSED VIRTUAL SCREENING OF BURNED: ARE TREES THE NEW COAL? A DOGWOOD ALLIANC'

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.
