The cycle of CO2

We have the responsibility to reduce global carbon dioxide (CO2) levels. Wood has the capacity to store carbon dioxide in the form of carbon (C). This leads to the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere. With the decision to build a wooden house, you can help contribute to solving the global carbon dioxide problem.

Here is a visual description of the carbon dioxide (CO2) cycle.
