CO2 consumption by rain tree?

How much CO2 does a tree take up? The issue of sequestration is very complicated. Sequestration rates vary greatly according to the age, composition, and location of the forests and the type of soil. The information TCI used for its computer brochure was taken from: Forests and Global Change, Vol. 2, Forest Management Opportunities for Mitigation of Carbon Emissions. Neil Sampson and Dwight Hair, Washington, 1996. Northeast, maple-beech-birch forests 25 year old forest: 12,000 lbs of carbon / 25 = 480 lbs of C per acre per year x 44/12 =1,760 lbs of CO2 per acre per year 120 year old forest: 128,000 lbs of carbon / 120 = 1,066 lbs of C per year per acre x 44/12 =3,909 lbs of CO2 per acre per year Tree density varies, and we used an average of 700 trees per acre (this number was taken from DOE's "Sector-Specific Issues and Reporting Methodologies Supporting the General Guidelines for the Voluntary Reporting of Greenhouse Gases under Sections 1605(b) of the Energy Policy Act of 1992") 25 year old forest: 1,760 lbs of CO2 per acre per year / 700 trees = average of 2.52 lbs of CO2 per tree per year (rounded to 3 lbs) 120 year old forest: 3,909 lbs of CO2 per year per acre = average of 5.58 lbs of CO2 per tree per year Northeast, white and red pine forests 25 year old forest: 67,000 lbs of carbon / 25 = 2,680 lbs of C per acre per year x 44/12 = 9,826 lbs of CO2 per acre per year / 700 = average of 14 lbs of CO2 per year per tree (rounded to 15 lbs) 120 year old forest: 246,000 lbs of carbon / 120 = 2,050 lbs of C per acre per year x 44/12 = 7,516 lbs of CO2 per acre per year / 700 = average of 11.7 lbs of CO2 per year per tree .

How much does a human pelvic bone weigh?

What is the weight per foot of 2 x 4 Douglas fir board?

The answer depends on the moisture content. An "average" weight of a board foot of Douglas-fir, which is not one specific tree but one of about a dozen different trees, is about 2.8 to 2.9 pounds per board foot. You could make a quick calculation based on that. And don't forget that a "2 x 4" is not really 2" by 4" in size. Dimensional lumber can be notoriously tricky to pin down. There is a shrinkage factor, too, darn it. The "real" size of a 2 x 4 is about 1 1/2 x 3 1/2 (and please don't split hairs here) from the lumber yard. In that case, a foot of this material weighs in at between 2.8 and 2.9 pounds, give or take.
