Do you heat with wood?
Are you thinking about replacing your current heating system?
Are you ready to get off fossil fuels?
Are you also interested in maintaining air quality and forest health?
In this virtual conversation, Cold Hollow to Canada invites in two Vermont wood heat experts for a discussion of wood energy. First, Emma Hanson, Wood Energy Coordinator with Vermont Department of Forests, Parks, and Recreation, will discuss how wood heat fits into the state's renewable energy goals. She'll cover different wood fuel types and their applications, carbon emissions, and cost, including a new Automated Wood Heat program that allows wood heat to be hooked up to a thermostat. Then we'll hear from Gail Stevenson of BurnRight Vermont, who will lead us through some simple steps for building a cleaner fire in our wood stoves. We'll leave some time for questions and discussion, too!
