Increasing the use of European wood-based products in global construction, textile and plastics markets, could generate as much as 60 billion euros of revenue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we are to restore balance in the atmosphere, we need to reduce emissions in the first place, while also increasing the capacity of the global carbon sink\u201d said Patrizio Antonicoli, Secretary General of <em>CEI-Bois<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cForests and timber are part of both solutions, absorbing carbon from the atmosphere and storing it as wood. Timber harvested from the forests can be turned into high-value products for construction using only a fraction of the energy and carbon that other materials would need.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe more Governments across the continent can support and invest in wood, the more valuable this bioeconomy can become, helping to reverse the adverse climate and environmental impacts of human activity and meet our obligations under the Paris agreement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Wood, Building the Bioeconomy <\/em>aims to exhibit the inherent advantages of using wood.\u2028Wood is renewable, sustainable and can be used, re-used and recycled.
