Provide a 1 page analysis while answering the following question: What Wood Fuels Can Do to Mitigate Climate Change. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide. An abstract is required. When wood burns without sufficient oxygen supply for combustion the effect is incomplete combustion, which leads to the production of Carbon II oxide. Production and use of wood fuel lead to the emission of carbon dioxide at different stages (Read et al 2009, pp 30-40). This is during harvesting, transportation, and transportation of the wood fuel. The two are greenhouse gases that have a greenhouse effect on the earth. However, the same wood energy can be a source of renewable energy.

Wood energy can be a source of renewable energy within the paradigm of specific conditions. The conditions include wood from the resources that are sufficiently sustainable, high calorific value and water content, gasification that cuts down on the level of emissions, and fiber content that allows the users to re-use or recycle the wood (Wilson & White 1986, pp20-40).

Wood fuel has several environmental advantages that make it a choice over other fossil fuels. It is renewable and offers dependable supply (FAO 2010, pp 162). The amount of carbon dioxide emitted during the burning process is typically 90% less than when burning fossil fuels. Wood fuel contains minimal amounts of sculpture and heavy metals (McKay et al 2010, 1017-1027). The most notable part is the fact that is its particulate emissions, which are considerably controllable.
