Climate change... and global biodiversity loss?

The solution is the protection and the restoration of forests.

In the EU and other countries forests are being burned for the production of energy (wood biomass) which is defined as renewable energy – but it is a fake – the burning, and the consequent  biodiversity loss are increasing the  manmade environmental impacts on the planet  – wood biomass should  therefore  be removed from the EU Renewable Energy Directive.
