ISO 13391 is a recently published standard that specifies how to calculate the greenhouse gas (GHG) dynamics for a set of wood and wood-based products. It includes four components: value chain emissions, harvested wood product carbon, forest carbon balance, and potentially displaced emissions. In this course, we will cover the basics of wood products sector GHG quantification, the methodologies used in ISO 13391, the development process for ISO 13391, and how wood products can contribute to climate solutions.
By the end of this course, you should be able to do the following:
- Examine how wood products can contribute to climate change mitigation.
- Recognize the importance of consistent and science-based GHG reporting.
- Review the key content of ISO 13391 and the approach to quantifying GHG dynamics.
- Explore how ISO 13391 can support wood sector GHG reporting and climate-forward design.
