In "Wood Products and Carbon Protocols: Carbon Storage and Low Energy Intensity Should be Considered," the staff at Dovetail Partners look at carbon storage within wood products and the amounts of energy and fossil fuel needed to make wood products. The authors argue that policy analysts developing incentives and protocols to reduce carbon emissions and increase carbon sequestration have ignored these two issues. The report concludes that considerable carbon is stored in wood products, which are also highly energy efficient, two facts that should help guide green building programs and government purchasing.
