Sequestered carbon. The embodied energies and CO2 footprints for woods, plywood, and paper do not include a credit for the energy and carbon stored in the wood itself, for the reasons explained in the text. Recalculate these, crediting them with sequestering energy and carbon by subtracting out the stored contributions (take them to be 25 MJ/kg and 2.8 kg CO2 per kg). Is there a net saving?
