Wood Energy Updates
The Federation has been busy exploring different opportunities for landowners that promote and combine climate resilient forest practices with local energy production. Wood energy production has often been seen as a carbon polluting, and wasteful concept to many, but if done right - it can create prosperous rural and urban communities that Nova Scotians can be proud of.
