Most soft woods produce high leves of creosote when burned, as they do not burn as hot as hard woods. Conifers are soft, not very dense, and contain a lot of pitch. This can lead to chimney fires if one does not clean their chimney regularly.
That being said, there are many people in the world who burn conifer, as it is what is available. As always when dealing with fire, if you take proper precautions, you should be fine.
Some types of conifer trees that produce red berries include yew trees and juniper trees.
A conifer is typically an evergreen, it does not drop its' 'leaves' (needles or scales) as do deciduous trees. Blue Spruce, White Pine, and Douglas fir are examples of conifer trees. Think Christmas trees - they are conifers. A conifer is a cone bearing tree. Some conifers are deciduous for example the Larch.
Sweet gum trees are not considered ideal for firewood as they tend to produce a lot of ash and can be difficult to split. Additionally, the wood may not burn as efficiently or cleanly as other hardwoods, so it is not typically sought after for firewood. There are better options available for firewood that are easier to split and provide more heat.

I had a female landscaping contractor tell me that burning ficus is a no-no because the fumes are toxic. She and he crew were removing several large ficus trees and I asked her if I could take some of the logs and she said sure, but don't burn it.
Yes, dead trees can be good for firewood. The benefits of using dead trees for fuel include their dryness, which makes them easier to burn and more efficient as firewood. Additionally, using dead trees for firewood can help reduce the risk of wildfires by removing potential fuel sources from the environment.
yeah

Conifer trees grow needles and cones

The many species of maple trees are broadleaf trees, and drop their leaves during the winter. Therefore, they are not a conifer.
this tree is an adult conifer, which branch is from an offspring of this tree
To determine if a tree is good for firewood, look for hardwood trees like oak, maple, or hickory. These trees burn longer and produce more heat compared to softwood trees like pine or spruce. Additionally, choose trees that are dry, seasoned, and have a low moisture content for efficient burning.
