THE FUTURE IS WOOD.
The way we have been building, with materials that required huge energy inputs to manufacture, is one of the greatest contributors of CO2 emissions. Staying in that course doesn´t make sense, we can change it...

(A THREAD) U.S. forest cover has increased over the last 20 years. They have a vital role to play protecting local ecosystems & providing a natural part of our response to climate change. So what are the 5 key benefits of forests?

DYK? Trees use CO2 to produce wood. Buildings made from wood continue to store carbon for as long as they exist. The energy stored in 10k cubic feet of wood is enough to light 100 homes for 9 years! @APAwood @ahec_europe @ASoftwoods #sustainability #GreenBuilding

[U.S. Sustainability Alliance @The_USSA]

Around 3/4 of Oregon's supply of logs comes from private lands rather than federal forests. Strict #forestlaws ensure responsible forest management, protecting them for future generations. Read more about the sustainability of @ASoftwoods here: https://t.co/55Fc57W8hb

Did you know? 33.2% or 304 million hectares of United States of America is forested. 👏 About 7.5% of the world's forests are in the United States. 😊 @americasforests @ahec_europe @APAwood @ASoftwoods @Southern_Pine

[USagricultureUK @USagricultureUK]

Did you know? About 7.5% of the world’s forests are in the United States; and altogether, U.S. forests cover over 800 million acres. 👏 @americasforests @ahec_europe @APAwood @ASoftwoods @Southern_Pine

[U.S. Sustainability Alliance @The_USSA]

Did you know that every two minutes, U.S. forests grow 700 metres? And as trees grow, they absorb CO2 from the atmosphere and release oxygen back into the air. Softwood products store much of this carbon indefinitely. #sustainability #arboriculture #forestry #softwood #timber

[North American Forest Foundation @ForestAmerican]

Did you know that softwood products store much of this carbon indefinitely. In the case of buildings, the carbon is kept out of the atmosphere for the lifetime of the structure—or longer if the softwood is reclaimed and used to manufacture other products.

[USagricultureUK @USagricultureUK]

2.5 billion trees are planted in the United States each year. Millions more trees re-grow from seeds and sprout naturally. 👏 This means that more wood is grown than harvested! 😊 #GrownintheUSA @Southern_Pine @APAwood @ASoftwoods @ahec_europe
