Carbon in the form of carbon dioxide is removed from the air when plants grow in the sun, taking in the sun's energy. The plant growing process is called photosynthesis and converts carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and releases the oxygen back to the air... When the fossil fuels, oil, natural gas, and coal are burned, they release the old carbon that was stored deep within the earth and released into the atmosphere. This is considered non-renewable energy with 100% of the carbon added to our air... Burning wood or plant biomass does not contribute to global warming because no more carbon dioxide is released than the plant would release if left to decompose. Using wood for heat or energy results in less fossil fuel burned, less greenhouse gas emissions, and a healthier environment.
