A useful tool for anti-CO2 policies
A study of the ISPRA (Istituto Superiore per la Protezione e la
Ricerca Ambientale) Department of Defense of Nature, has estimated
the amount of carbon fixed in wood products (carbon stocks), as
well as the balance between emissions and absorption (carbon sink
or carbon source) over the years.
The study, written in English, entitled “Applying the
IPCC GPG for LULUCF approaches for assessing changes in carbon
stocks and emissions of green-house gas for Harvested Wood Products
in Italy”, realized in the frame of ISPRA-MATTM
Convention for the national registry of greenhouse gas emissions,
is - the authors Susanne Kloehn and Lorenzo Ciccarese say - a
useful tool both for policy makers called to activate anti-CO2
policies and for employers in the manufacturing and industrial
sectors (wood, furniture, waste, energy, construction, etc.)
involved on matters treated by the survey.
