I’m glad to see discussion of cleaner burning wood heat, as wood burning is a well established energy economy in rural communities, especially ones not serviced by a natural gas utility. Subsidies for cleaner burning wood heaters would be especially helpful, along with a much needed education campaign on how to burn cleanly. As I mentioned in my last post, air pollution has costs, but without education people’s business as usual wood burning practices are not noticed as a problem.
