Is pine wood good for the environment?

Answer 1

natually wood is a source of fuel.through this can harm be caused to the environment through pollution and also to other organisms due to the formation of green house gases

no wood cann't be harmful beacuse wood played a important roll in nutral recycle.

wood obtains oxygen for creatures and there is a lot of important roll .

Answer 2

Pine trees? Yes I would say that generally they are good for the environment.

Reagan famously said 'trees pollute more than cars do'. While this is, ofcourse political crazy spin, there are some truth in the trees do emit. Specifically, Isoprene was what Reagan was referring to but to claim that a natural cycle of pine emissions is the same as adding fossil carbon to an existing system is plainly lying.

Also, pine offers products like wood and paper, habitat for animals and other plants, cleans the air and water we need for life...

No question in my mind that pine is good for the environment.

Answer 3

Biomass is not harmful to the environment.

Biomass (the burning of plant material) does add carbon dioxide (CO2) to the atmosphere, but it is CO2 that was recently taken out of the atmosphere (when the plants were growing) so this is not extra CO2. Burning biomass then is part of the natural carbon cycle which moves CO2 in and out of the atmosphere.

The carbon dioxide that comes from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) was taken out of the atmosphere millions of years ago, so releasing it now is adding extra CO2 (and causing global warming).

This is why biomass is renewable energy and much better than fossil fuels.

Answer 4

Only by adding to greenhouse gases that are harmful to the atmosphere if huge amounts of it are burned to excess over a long period of time.
