As our forests grow, they remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through photosynthesis and store it as solid carbon. The 9 million metric tons of carbon our forests remove on an annual basis is equivalent to removing 2.1 million cars from the road for a year or decommissioning 2.3 coal-fired power plants. At Weyerhaeuser, we measure the cumulative impact of our forests on the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide using a stock-change methodology. That means we measure our forests’ net effect on the atmosphere — including growth, harvest and mortality — reflecting the net change in carbon storage on our land, including land use decisions, forest management, growth conditions and natural disturbances.
