This power plant would burn 500,000 tons of wood a year
and release 1 billion pounds of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere. It puts out 1.5 times as much CO2 as the Mt.
Tom coal fired plant per megawatt of power produced. This
power plant will add .3% of electricity to the Massachusetts
grid and will operate at 25% efficiency.

The air pollution from nitrogen oxide and volatile organic
compounds (two ingredients of ground level ozone) and fine
particulate matter affects our health, especially if we are
young, old, or have lung or heart problems. It is associated
with asthma, heart disease and cancer.

Your tax dollars will subsidize this project. The developer of
the power plant will get $60 million of taxpayer money
within 3 weeks of finishing the project. Then the developer
will sell it, most likely to an investment fund, and will leave
town.
