  • Join Jason as he embarks on a mission to assess the carbon stored within the fallen timber from a recent winter storm! In this insightful video, Jason dives into the fascinating world of tree carbon sequestration and sustainability.
    With curiosity as his guide, Jason calculates the amount of carbon stored in the fallen trees on his property. Through careful measurements and calculations, he unveils the environmental significance of these towering giants and their role in carbon sequestration.
    Watch as Jason shares his methodology for determining the carbon content of the trees, shedding light on the intricate process of carbon quantification. Through his efforts, he seeks to gain a deeper understanding of the environmental impact and sustainability of his timber resources.
    Once the carbon assessment is complete, Jason proceeds to responsibly clean up the fallen timber, getting ready to transform it into valuable high-grade lumber. Witness the journey from fallen tree to sustainable lumber, highlighting Jason's commitment to environmental stewardship and resource utilization.

    at 1:08 it looked like there was potential to be Jason from Mount S&J Fishing Worms

    It's possible to fix/rewind those spencer tapes after the springs get to their ends like that. I used to fix them working down in the equipment room at the OSU College of Forestry back when Peavy Hall was still standing.

    Very interesting video, I also enjoy you when you are on Kent's channel, sounds like you guys are pretty good friends, don't know how bad these recent storms affected him.

    The leaves and needles etc got to add up as well over 140 years.

    Hi Jason. Very interesting subject. Here in Denmark, according to figures from Copenhagen University, fastgrowing conifers absorb around 18 mt CO2 per hectare yearly, and decidious trees absorb around 12 tons per hectare yearly in our temperate climate. Another thing to add is, that the average harvest time is 40-60 years for conifers and 80-120 years for decidious trees, so you get more CO2 removal from the atmosphere by growing conifers, and substituting energy intensive materials, such as steel and concrete in construction, with wood.
    Where's all the hemlock going, in to the mine? 🙂 Take care.

    Very interesting topic indeed. Also what a tree stores and what is actually long time stored after harvesting the tree depends on the quality of the wood and what exactly is happening to scrap coming out of the sawmill. Woodchips for gardening rot fast and release the CO2.
    I guess thats why there is a whole CO2 storage industry to make this whole calculation as complex as possible ;)

    sorry about your tape measure...but at least you get to buy a new one.

    Jason, I hope you are not getting woke. CO2 is good, not evil. Life depends on it. Don’t give us this carbon neutral crap.

      I must say... I thought much the same... but, I think Jason answered our fears in the last few seconds of this video... tongue in cheek, our Jason! Afterall... carbon is one of the essential building blocks for life, so why not turn some into good quality boards to help build the future!!

      CO2 is neither good nor evil. The question is what happens when we put it in the atmosphere? Like everything, we try to model it and understand it. The models predict a warming earth and a world that is less able to sustain us
