Background information<\/a><\/p>\n The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is an urgent international target. The sustainable use of biomass\u00a0 for wooden products and energy is one important option that might significantly contribute to the reduction\u00a0 of greenhouse gas emissions by substituting the use of non-renweable materials and fossil energy. Given that the amount of sustainably available biomass is limited, the most efficient use of biomass is an important issue. Biomass offers a wide range of possibilities to reuse, recycle and to generate energy. The main objective to be addressed and discussed in this joint workshop was the optimal combination of the different aspects of carbon sequestration and biomass cascading to contribute to greenhouse gas reduction by substituting conventional materials and fossil energy. It provided a forum for government, policy and academic representatives to exchange\u00a0 information on current knowledge regarding optimal use of biomass for greenhouse gas mitigation.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Monday, 25 April 2005<\/b><\/p>\n Wood energy in Ireland – contribution to GHG reduction.<\/b> Carbon sinks and forest products in the Kyoto Process – current and future developments.<\/b> Optimizing the GHG benefits of bioenergy and carbon sequestration systems.<\/b> Cost and CO2-emission reduction of biomass cascading \u2013 Methodological aspects and case study of SRF poplar.<\/b> Energy and carbon dioxide balances of various cascade chains for recovered wood.<\/b> Global carbon stocks in harvested wood products: a review of current understanding and estimates.<\/b> Energy generation from recovered wood for greenhouse gas reduction.<\/b> Energetic utilization of wood in Hungary.<\/b> Potential for energy production and greenhouse gas mitigation from biomass waste streams in Ireland.<\/b> Greenhouse impacts of utilising wood processing residues for composite products or bioenergy: implications for renewable energy incentive schemes.<\/b> Wood recycling mitigates climate change.<\/b> Recovered wood from residential and office building \u2013 assessment of GHG emissions for reuse, recycling, and energy generation.<\/b> <\/p>\nScope and objectives of the conference<\/strong><\/h1>\n
