While voicing great concern about the Trump Administration’s decision to reverse important climate change measures, the Biomass Thermal Energy Council (BTEC) reaffirmed today its strong support for clean air, rural economic development, and renewable energy innovation.

Speaking for Rural Employment and Sustainable Energy

Long advocating biomass heating technologies as a local, sustainable, clean energy source is BTec. While supporting thousands of rural employment in forestry, manufacturing, and fuel supply networks, these solutions lower reliance on fossil fuels. Through long-term energy infrastructure, communities investing in thermal biomass energy not only reduce carbon emissions but also boost local economies.

Opposing Climate Rollbacks

Recent moves to undermine federal climate laws run the risk of erasing years of advancement in the acceptance of renewable energy and air quality improvement.

BTec vehemently disagrees with:

  • Rollbacks of carbon emission limitations for industrial units and power plants
  • Elimination of clean technologies’ subsidies and renewable heating sources weakening of EPA criteria safeguarding public welfare

These policy reversals obviously contradict the main objectives of environmental responsibility and sustainable living, therefore endangering fragile rural areas and ecosystems.

Clear Air and Environmental Action Work Hand in Hand

Particularly in areas where other renewable solutions are few, thermal biomass systems offer a sensible, reasonably priced way to decarbonize the heating industry. Scaling these solutions depends on maintaining and growing government climate programs, therefore guaranteeing cleaner air and a better future for every American.

BTEC’s Call to Action

BTec asks legislators to rethink negative rollbacks and instead increase support for low-carbon heating solutions that stimulate rural employment creation while safeguarding public health and the environment. Achieving long-term sustainability depends mostly on cooperation rather than retreat.
