sawn english hardwoods

Trees form a very efficient mechanism for removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and locking the carbon away in its cellular structure thus forming an essential part of the ecosystem. Trees die, fall over and rot, this releases carbon back into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide or methane.
