An earlier suggestion to solve the global carbon dioxide problem by Scholz and Hasse is subject to restrictions when transferred into operational applications and to an order of magnitude that would be needed to display a significant reduction of the atmospheric CO 2 concentration. This contribution presents an alternative point of view on the utilization of timber as a means for solving the global carbon dioxide problem, and expands on the wood growth and burial process.
