We had a massive heating bill due to the last rough winter, so when we put a new roof on the house I stocked all the wood from the old one for heating. Good news is that for one or two winters I’m self sufficient. But after that? The price of wood is climbing. A BBC article makes me wonder if we will ever get out of the loop. Author, Jeffrey McNeely suggests that “bioenergy is too important to be left in the hands of the private sector.” So that puts the onus back on the governments of this world. May that they get their act together.
