Study: Removing Biomass Won't Harm Forests

Some researchers and forest officials have found that biomass can likely be taken away from the woods without harming the forest and the soil -- but they haven't figured out how to harvest the biomass economically.

Biomass is made up of tree branches and shrubs that could be used to produce electricity.

In the past, loggers who cut down trees would take the trunks, and leave the tree tops and branches on the ground to rot and feed the soil. About a year and a half ago, the cities of Virginia and Hibbing built a boiler that would burn wood to produce electricity. Since then, loggers have been chipping up some of the treetops and branches and hauling the chips to the boiler.
