Wood fuel - Environmental Impact
Depending on topography and climatic conditions, wood heating in certain areas can cause air pollution, particularly particulates. "Slow combustion stoves" increase efficiency of wood heaters burning logs, but also increase particulate production. Low pollution slow combustion stoves are a current area of research. An alternative approach is to use pyrolysis to produce several useful biochemical byproducts, and clean burning charcoal, or to burn fuel extremely quickly inside a large thermal mass. This has the effect of allowing the fuel to burn completely without producing particulates while maintaining the efficiency of the system.
Wood is said to be a greenhouse gas lean form of heating since the combustion of a tree releases the same amount of carbon dioxide as is bound up by a growing tree. Therefore, for this to be true, the ressource must be managed accordingly. As far as the carbon dioxide released from the energy used in the processing and transport of heating wood, it does contribute to global warming.

Sneak-Peek of Global Oneness Community
Hi friend! The Global Oneness Community, the place for information and sharing about Oneness is not really launched yet (you will see there is still some clean up to do) ...but it is now open for a sneak-peek! And if you wish - please register and become one of the very first members to do so! Jonas
