Living Landscapes

When a tree is cut down and converted into logs, the carbon dioxide given off when those logs burn is only that which it has locked up during the course of it's lifetime. This CO2 would be released anyway when the tree died and decomposed naturally. The regrowth from the stump of that cut down tree, or a newly planted one, immediately starts soaking up CO2 as it grows, and so the cycle starts again. Fossil fuels on the other hand are giving off CO2 that has been locked up under the earth for tens of thousands of years, and would not otherwise be released.

By heating your home with Living Landscapes wood-fuel, you are choosing an environmentally sound option. Not only are you helping to improve the habitat for woodland plants and animals, you are also buying a carbon-lean, local and renewable source of fuel.

Living Landscapes supply and deliver high quality, seasoned, hard-wood logs, available all year round, as well as other woodland products. All our timber is the by-product of Forestry Commission approved woodland management and restoration projects, so is a truly sustainable product. Such projects are designed to increase the biodiversity of the Island's woodlands, helping to create habitats for Red squirrels and Dormice among other endangered species.
