Most deciduous trees shed 50,000 leaves every year causing hazards to pedestrians and road users across the country.  Local authorities collect this leaf waste and up to 80% is sent to landfill which releases methane gas (23 times more hazardous than CO2) into the atmosphere. With Climate Change issues at the forefront of local, national and international politics, research shows that over 145 million tonnes of CO2 is emitted by households in England and Wales from electricity usage alone.  Where households use multi-fuel appliances ie coal and wood, these emissions reduce to approx 66 million tonnes annually.  Burning Leaf Log® in boilers, stoves, wood burners and ultimately power stations would reduce these figures by up to 70%.

Energy is required from the time we are born to the time we die and our increased use of this resource is detrimentally affecting the planet in which we live.  Renewable energy is our only sustainable future and with its primary raw material grown and sourced locally, Leaf Log®  is an excellent alternative for fossil fuels.  Providing over 2 hours of warmth and heat from each unit, Leaf Log® manufacturing plants will be set up across the country alleviating the need for long distance deliveries ensuring the overall carbon footprint of the product is kept to a minimum. By setting up Leaf Log® plants across the country, using leaf litter for making Leaf Log® would:- 

	Reduce the carbon footprint of transporting Leaf Log®  nationwide.
	Alleviate the need to landfill leaves.
	Save money on landfill tax.
	Eliminate the release of methane gas from decomposing leaves.
	Provide heat, warmth and ultimate power (energy) for homes and industry across the country.
	Work in conjunction with local authority composting schemes allowing residents to purchase compost and Leaf Log® from dedicated plants.

Our goal is to turn all leaf litter into Leaf Log® to reduce CO2 and methane emissions into our atmosphere and to provide a cost effective and sustainable alternative source of energy.
