Short summary
This paper estimates the share of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions attributable to non-renewable wood fuel harvesting for use in residential food-related activities. It adds to a growing research base estimating GHG emissions from across the entire agri-food value chain and contributes to the development of the FAOSTAT climate change domain.
