<P><BIG>Hi,</BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>You have made the Finnish Environment Minister and the European
Commission nervous.</B> They thought passing a law to make the industrial
burning of forests legal would be easy. And alone, they may have been able to
ignore you.</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>But people power is working. <B>There are 240,000 of us with you, and
when thousands of us use our voices together, we make a difference.
</B></BIG></P>
<P><BIG>Finland is the main country pushing to burn forests and call it
renewable energy. <B>Thanks to our actions, we got the Finnish Environment
Minister to speak out against her government.</B> [1]</BIG></P>
<P><BIG>We met with <B>the European Commission</B> to deliver the petition, but
they still seem to be bowing down to the logging lobby. They <B>will decide in
the next few days whether they protect or keep burning trees.</B> [2] </BIG></P>
<P><BIG><B>But to win, we need to continue to pile on the same pressure</B> that
forced the Finnish Environment Minister to change her position.<B> Here's
how: today, we are joining a European-wide day of action against the mass
burning of trees for energy. We’ll be sharing pictures directly with the
Commission, and</B> will be joined by people from 130 organisations from all
over Europe. Greta Thunberg already shared our message on social media. [3] So
start drawing! </BIG></P>

European leaders will present what counts as ‘renewable energy’ in a proposal
for a new Renewable Energy Directive (RED II). It will be presented by the
Commission on July 14th – so far, burning of forests is still included. Right
now, nearly €7 billion per year are being spent on subsidizing the burning of
wood in
Europe.<BR>https:<SPAN>//www.climatechangenews</SPAN>.com/2021/02/11/time-end-subsidies-burning-wood-forests/<BR>The
Renewable Energy Directive itself is causing a great deal of harm, as it was one
of the first pieces of legislation to define wood burning as carbon neutral and
encouraged it as a means of generating heat and electricity.<BR>[3]
