In many cases, the wood used to fuel a wood burner is recycled waste material anyway (wood chips and wood pellets, which are manufactured from compressed sawdust). But even when not recycled, trees are still an abundant resource on the planet and are endlessly renewable - plant a new tree for each one cut down and the sun and
co2 will do the rest.
In fact, trees are arguably the ultimate in solar power since they not only store the sun's energy in a convenient and ...

In fact, trees are arguably the ultimate in solar power since they not only store the sun's energy in a convenient and easy to use form that can be stored until needed, but they also absorb and lock away carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
This process is not totally ...
The Low Carbon Buildings Programme also handles applications for grants towards other renewable energy initiatives such as wood burners which are proving popular due to the significant energy savings to be gained and sustainability with regard to supply of resources and
co2 emissions. Whether such incentives exist in your own country will depend upon your government's attitude and policies towards solar energy.
Like most things, ...

hose who own one rather snobbily insist), the swimming pool shed, the Roman Temple shed, the cow shed (for those who keep cows), the milking shed (for milking said cows), the pub shed and so the list goes on with a recent entrant in these times of concern about
co2 footprints and renewable energy - the solar shed.
So what's a Solar Shed you ask? Well, for the purpose of this article it's whatever type of garden shed you had before but with power, or more precisely, free solar power. Not to be confused with a glorified potting shed that has glass sides and/or roof (basically a wooden greenhouse) which is sometimes also termed a solar ...

This can be managed as an endlessly sustainable, balanced cycle that produces almost zero excess
co2 emissions into the atmosphere. Fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) by contrast are not in the slightest renewable or sustainable and are a one way street as far as
co2 is concerned.
But it's not really about tree-hugging and hand-crafted eco-credibility any more; in ...
... harvested as a renewable resource, the trees planted today to replace the ones used as biofuel in wood burning stoves will again absorb exactly the same amount of carbon dioxide as is released by the burning process. This can be managed as an endlessly sustainable, balanced cycle that produces almost zero excess
CO2 emissions into the atmosphere. Fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) by contrast are not in the slightest renewable or sustainable and are a one way street as far as
CO2 is concerned.
But it's not really about tree-hugging and hand-crafted eco-credibility any more; in addition to very sound environmental reasons, there are very sound economic reasons to go ...
The supply of these is steadily diminishing, and unlike wood you cannot easily and fairly quickly grow another oil well or coal mine. They also represent a one way street where
co2 is concerned which does not mesh well the current trend towards a low-carbon society.
With relentless cost and environmental pressures on fossil fuels, it's hard not to see a bright future for a heating technology based on a genuinely renewable and carbon neutral resource that ...
... deceptively simple heating technology? The answer is to be found by considering the "conventional" alternatives based on fossil fuels. The supply of these is steadily diminishing, and unlike wood you cannot easily and fairly quickly grow another oil well or coal mine. They also represent a one way street where
CO2 is concerned which does not mesh well the current trend towards a low-carbon society.
