Burn Wise - Outreach Materials
Education about the effects of wood smoke is an important component in reducing particle pollution in any community. Engaging the public and giving them the tools to make the right decisions about what they burn-- and how they burn-- is the first step in a wood smoke plan.
- With proper burning techniques and well-seasoned wood, emissions can be significantly reduced, even in older appliances
- More efficient and cleaner-burning appliances can also cause pollution if operated improperly.
