Los bosques contienen diez veces más energía que la que se consume cada año a nivel mundial
La madera proporciona más energía que la generada por el sol, el agua o el viento. Gracias a ella 2.400 millones de personas pueden cocinar, hervir agua y calentar sus hogares, explica Naciones Unidas
Hoy, 21 de marzo, se celebra el Día Internacional de los Bosques. Este año, la organización de las Naciones Unidas subraya cómo la dendroenergía (la energía que proviene de los árboles) contribuye de manera significativa a mejorar la vida de las personas, fomentar el desarrollo sostenible y mitigar el cambio climático.
La madera es una importante fuente de energía renovable. La madera proporciona más energía que la generada por el sol, el agua o el viento. En la actualidad, subrayan desde la ONU, la madera representa aproximadamente el 45% del suministro de energía renovable en el mundo (27% en África, 13% en América del Sur y el Caribe y 5% en Asia y Oceanía).
