Sustainable fuel from woodland and trees
By managing woodlands to provide fuel and building materials we can create a sustainable environment. Matthew Woodcock from the Forestry Commission illustrates the benefits of wood as a fuel with help from a poster. This eductional tool shows sources of wood such as upland woodland, fast growing willow ,coppice management, and community woodland to name a few. He also shows how logs can be used for timber buildings and the offcuts for wood chip heating. It includes a section showing children at school learning about the carbon cycle whilst also being kept warm by a wood chip boiler.
Fuel From Your Woodland
Wood makes a great fuel for heating your house as it’s sustainable. Professor Julian Evans shows us his log pile and talks about the species of wood which burn well.
