The idea that wood is co2 neutral is that the co2 was locked into the wood 'recently' and is released again - the co2 in gas / coal was locked in a long time ago, and is now being released - thus increasing the current levels of co2
wood fires dont make anyone I know cough - if they have a modern wood burning stove not an open fire. I heat my whole house (1722 5 bedroom water mill) from a single 20kw rated wood burner - thats not efficient???
I have no gas here, so I dont have any choice, but thats another story.
