renewed and organized attack on the new and pre-existing Thanks Jim for doing it, will try it. In the meantime after a bit if digging last night, I found that it is available on something called Scribd, to read at: http://www.scribd.com/doc/293882891/Forest-Biomass-Energy-in-the-Maritime-Provinces-Accounting-for-Science This opens OK and I had a look (looks good and with very nasty pics of devastating clearcuts). It's about 34 pages + references, a bit stiff for one read, but it says you can download a PDF: when you hit that button it wants you to subscribe to Scribd for free for 2 weeks, but it is not clear even then that you can then get a PDF out of it so I dumped it. Says there have been 2543 views but 0 likes, which I'd guess means that most of the 2543 gave up like I did, whatever they might have thought of it. So will try your link approach. Steve P.S. Thanks David P also -- have just seen your post, so will try yours or Jim's. ________________________________________ From: naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca [naturens-owner@chebucto.ns.ca] on behalf of Jim Wolford [jimwolford@eastlink.ca] Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2016 1:32 AM To: naturens Cc: Raymond Plourde; Jim Wolford Subject: [NatureNS] re burning of biomass for electricity & heat, was Red Herring & Forestry I sent Steve’s request re access to Jamie Simpson’s report to Ray Plourde of Ecology Action Centre, and here is his reply.

Here's the link to the report: file:///C:/Users/Ray/Downloads/2015_12_15_ECELAW_Biomass_Report_Final.pdffile:///C:/Users/Ray/Downloads/2015_12_15_ECELAW_Biomass_Report_Final.pdf We're very keen to work with any and all groups on this issue if there's interest. We also have a renewed and organized attack on the new and pre-existing protected areas from the ATVers who still believe they should have the right to run everywhere. This article was on the front page of the Herald today: There is a growing organized ATV lobby for more access to the Wilderness Areas and the Premier is sympathetic. We need to counteract this before it get's worse. Letters to the Herald and calls and letters to MLAs supporting motorized-free protected areas would be a good start. Is this something you guys could help out with that would be great Jim. Rural voices are the most important. Let's chat.

Can either of you answer the question about access to Jamie Simpson’s report? Thanks from Jim in Wolfville.

Just re-read the Beswick, and note that he gives no indication of where (or if) one can obtain a copy of the original report. Does anyone know if an electronic copy of it is accessible, as a PDF or whatever? Steve ________________________________________
