43:29Now PlayingAmid the ongoing fight to protect British Columbia’s forests, The Fifth Estate investigates how the province has become a leading exporter of wood pellets that are burned to fuel energy needs in the U.K., Japan and South Korea. The industry is billed as “green” and “renewable,” but many scientists disagree and activists say Canada has made a mistake in supporting the industry.
