Green Energy Resources Pledges to Take up to 10 Million Tons of Hurricane Storm Wood
Every Ton of Wood Used for Energy Prevents 3 Tons of Methane Gas From Being Released Into the Atmosphere
Green Energy Resources (PINKSHEETS: GRGR)
announced plans to take up to 10 million tons of hurricane storm wood in
2008, if it becomes available. The company asked for the public's
assistance to help procure the wood from FEMA and Gulf States through the
purchase of Green Energy Resources carbon offset credits. The credits are
available at $6 per carbon ton and will make a very real contribution in
preventing global warming. For every two tons of carbon offset credits
purchased, 1 ton of wood can be secured for renewable energy power
generation. Traditionally, federal storm contractors openly burn and
landfill the wood, radically increasing and emitting greenhouse gases into
the atmosphere. In 2005, four Florida hurricanes produced nearly 50 million
tons of wood, and 150 million tons of carbon and methane that ultimately
was wasted and landfilled. The purchase of the carbon offsets will be used
for procurement and transfer of the wood to power generators and turned
into energy worldwide. Tracking of the carbon credits will be maintained
through the company's Urban Tree Certification System (UTCS) software
database. Buyers of the carbon offsets will receive authentic carbon offset
certificates from Green Energy Resources and make a very real contribution
to reducing global warming. www.greenenergyresources.com
Green Energy Resources is a global supplier of wood fiber fuels to the
power generation industry. Wood biomass has multiple applications including
ethanol production, co-firing with coal, direct burn and gasification. Wood
biomass represents 53% of all renewable energy production in the US and is
10 times the combined volumes of wind and solar energy.
The purchase of carbon offset credits will be activated on the Green
Energy website or sent via mail to company offices at 275 Madison Ave, 6th
flr NY, NY. 10016
