This video doesn't get posted enough--I heard about it months ago but only just now watched it.
They're cutting down all the trees to burn as fuel.

It's that but also "every green movement you ever thought was doing any good is in the pockets of billionaires" and "they're cutting down all the trees to make energy" and "every green technology is a scam". I'm still processing it all.
Controlled opposition and green washing... that tracks.

"Biomass" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomass

This map seems to leave off a ton of biomass plants that were on the map in the film. Also since the biomass plants qualify as "green" they get free money, the example used in the film being a plant next to daycares and schools that got $11M to fuck up the surrounding lands.
Ah.. yeah. Gotta boil that water some how. :elmofire:
