This past summer, Andrea had the opportunity to work as an AC for French documentary filmmaker Benoît Grimont. He was exploring the impact of the biomass industry in France, which brought him to shipping ports on the coast of the Eastern United States where the Southern forests are being clearcut and chopped into wood pellets. Lead by members of the Dogwood Alliance Adam Macon and Rachel Weber, we were lead on an investigation to discover the truth behind the source of trees being used in the process.
