Thanks you for your strong reply. How does that message reach the
sources of the min-information?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">What
a waste of wood. That has to be said first.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">What
a confused set of thoughts this guy expresses.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">First,
he seriously believes that CO2 is a pollutant. It is not.
It is plant food. That is why the wood contains carbon in
the first place. Every living thing on the planet is
dependent directly or indirectly on carbon from the air for
food.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Second,
he assumes that CO is an inherent emissions from the burning
of wood, which is incorrect. CO emissions varies hugely
depending on the carbon combustion efficiency of the burner.
It could be any value from 0% to 15% of the carbon input to
the fire. It is not a property of the fuel, but rather a
property of the stove.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Third,
he assumes that PM2.5 is also an inherent emissions from
wood combustion. Same thing applies: there may be nearly no
PM2.5 emitted, or a huge amount - it depends on the stove.
There is no PM2.5 inside wood, waiting to come out. If the
WHO also thinks this is the case, they are just as
misinformed.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Fourth,
"Let's do some math": Burning 1 kg of wood releases about
1.83 kg of CO2, not 403 g. The carbon content of 403 g of
CO2 is only 110 g of carbon. Wood is about 50% carbon on a
mass basis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Fifth,
Burning 500 quintals of wood releases 91,650 kg of CO2, not

style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">20,000 kg.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-fareast-language:EN-US">Sixth,
if we were somehow to drive the CO2 down to the
pre-industrial low mark, food production on Planet Earth
would drop 30%. That should judged a be a crime against
humanity.
