Global forests have the potential to significantly increase or reduce atmospheric greenhouse
gas (GHG) concentration. Harvested wood products (HWP) are an important part of the …

In addition to forest ecosystems, wood products are carbon pools that can be strategically
managed to mitigate climate change. Wood product models (WPM s) simulating the carbon …

Carbon stored in harvested wood products (HWPs) can affect national greenhouse gas
(GHG) inventories, in which the production and end use of HWPs play a key role. The …

Cascading keeps wood in products for a longer duration and delays the embedded biogenic
carbon emission. Carbon is kept out of the atmosphere for longer, giving forests time to …

A common idea is that substituting wood for fossil fuels and energy intensive materials is a
better strategy in mitigating climate change than storing more carbon in forests. This opinion …

The aims of this study were to quantify the amount of wood in residential houses in Finland
in 2017 that could be available for cascading, and to characterize the age distribution and …

Abstract Background British Columbia's (BC) extensive forest resources provide climate
change mitigation opportunities that are available to few other jurisdictions. However, as a …

Temporary and permanent carbon storage from biogenic sources is seen as a way to
mitigate climate change. The aim of this work is to illustrate the need to harmonize the …

As wood products in use store carbon and can contribute to reducing the concentration of
atmospheric CO2, the improved and enhanced use of wood products can be a successful …

The challenges brought on by Climate Change have been succinctly described by Professor
John Schellnhuber1 as a MAD Challenge; one which requires simultaneous action on …
