Best Answer

Wood should be classed as Biomass, as it has grown and been cut for fuel within a time span of probably 100 years. Fossil fuel is that which has been created from vegetation that grew millions of years ago. The burning of biomass is not considered to add CO2 to the atmosphere, as it absorbed a similar amount during growth, in recent history.
