How Canada reports on forest greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. : Fo93-1/7-2020E-PDF

"Forests are dynamic ecosystems. They change over time as they are affected by natural processes of growth, decay and death by natural disturbances such as wildfire, insects, disease and windstorms. They are also affected by human activity. Canada’s forests play an important role in the global carbon cycle due to their large area and high amount of carbon stored. Our forests both remove carbon from the atmosphere as they grow (they act as a carbon sink) and emit it when they die and decay or burn (they act as a source of GHG emissions). Each year, the Canadian Forest Service (CFS) of Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) uses its state-of-the-art methodologies to update estimates of the net sink or source in our managed forest and the changes over time".
