Carbon Footprints
We will be following the carbon story, from an estimation of how much carbon was contained in the tree, to a calculation of the final carbon footprints of some of the products.
| Researchers at Forest Research will be estimating the carbon content of the tree. This will start with measurements of the leaf area of the tree during Summer 2009. | |
| TreeMetrics will be using terrestrial laser scanning equipment to create an exact 3D digital model of the tree. This will allow us to estimate its volume. | |
| We will be creating some carbon tools on this page with Best Foot Forward when we start work on the tree and producing products. |
