From here.

Furthermore, often when a house is demolished the lumber will end up in a landfill which typically retards the decomposition process in order to slow the generation of waste methane. Therefore, the CO2 remains locked up in the lumber for another century or more.

It's almost like the tree-hugging hippies WANT us to all die, isn't it.

By the way, do you know the difference between an environmentalist and a building contractor?

The contractor wants to build a house in the woods, and the environmentalist already has one.

You would probably enjoy this book from 1991. That's the main plot setting right there.
