We conducted a survey in a plywood mill in Niigata Prefecture for the purpose of environmental impact quantification. We calculated the yield and measured the energy used at the plywood mill. Then we calculated the CO2 emissions per cubic meter of plywood production. We also measured the volume of by-products from the plywood mill. After that, we calculated the carbon balance by subtracting the carbon emissions from the amount of fixed carbon. Finally, we determined the environmental impact of the plywood with LIME.
