From Martin van Raay
Liegh White is keeping a log burner “with a clear conscience” (Letters, 15 October). Burning wood is not just about carbon dioxide. Wood smoke is roughly as carcinogenic as tobacco smoke.
I propose we change the goal of “sustainable energy” to “clean energy”. I know of no clean energy that is not sustainable and renewable. Wood is much too valuable a resource to burn.
