Fossil fuels do their share of destruction. For biomass, this problem relates more to foolish or ignorant use than to the overall promise. Wise and informed choices need to be made here. Can you use your knowledge to help make wise biomass fuel development choices to help guide us? Or do you want to waste your and our time focusing on fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are a fossil, we need better (that would make a better baseball cap inscription than MAGA). We have progressed in making wise choices on this list with cooking stoves.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Dr. Anderson promotes TLUD gasifiers in ways he considers best.
