Abstract

This chapter reviews the role of the production, use and end-of-life management of harvested wood products (HWPs) in the global carbon cycle. Harvested wood products can be long term reservoirs of carbon; however, solid wood products, paper, and paperboard manufacturing require large energy and heat inputs, and end-of-life pathways can further or hinder carbon sequestration, depending on management.
