- Is Biomass Really A Clean Energy Resource?
By: Rick Solare | - As we strive to find alternative energy resources, many potential solutions are on the table. Biomass energy is one such solution or is it?
Biomass energy is unique in that it has existed in primitive forms since the early days of mankind. Burning wood in a cave is a form of biomass energy, which is simply the conversion of an organic material in a manner that produces heat. For example, a fire converts the organic wood into heat. Therein, however, lays the problem.
