How the Lumber Industry Benefits the Environment

The use of lumber greatly benefit our lives and environment. Lumber is used two ways depending on it's state. The rough state of lumber can be shaped and molded into different fixtures. This state of lumber is used mainly for our domestic necessities such a s furniture making. The other state, finished lumber, is mostly used for construction. The finished state of lumber is soft wood coming from coniferous areas. (Wikipedia the free encyclopedia). Using wood instead of concrete or metal helps preserve more energy use, resource use, decrease our pollution levels, and reduced impact on our environment.Wood produces far less green house gases than that of other resources used to build.

The lumber industry has also helped pick up the forests growth in more northern continent. This industry also provides a job or career to the nation. Working in the lumber industry is not an easy task but shows ones tenacity to serve its environment. Upon working in the industry, a pension plan was created as a benefit for those who work in the field of the production of lumber.
