I know this has been discussed before. I would like to bring in a few new editors' opinions on whether biomass & biofuel could be removed from the template. Thank you. Brian Everlasting (talk) 23:15, 2 August 2014 (UTC)Reply[reply]


There are several main reasons why biomass and biofuel should be removed from the template. Before I discuss those reasons, let me confirm that my previous account, User:TeH_nOmInAtOr has already voiced a few of those reasons.

I think those who are in favor of removing renewable energy sources because they pollute or have other negative long-term impacts (such as higher food prices) are conflating "renewable" with "sustainable". This confusion might be prevalent in popular culture but we should not perpetuate that here. I think we all can agree that something can be "renewable" without being "sustainable", right?
