Figure 1: One million cubic meters of wood salvage logged after a major windstorm in Sweden. The carbon content of this wood pile is about one quarter million tons of C. Annual carbon released globally from burning of fossil fuels (8 billion tons of C and growing) is equal to about 32 thousand times the amount of C contained in this wood pile.
