Notes: Forest land includes emissions and removals resulting from managed forests and lands converted to forests; includes growth and anthropogenic disturbances related to forest management. It excludes fire and most insect disturbances. In previous years, the National Inventory Report values for forest land also included natural disturbance. Harvested wood product emissions result from the use and disposal of harvested wood products manufactured from wood coming from forest harvest and forest conversion activities in Canada. Net removals and emissions include only the forest land and harvested wood products categories and do not consider emissions associated with deforestation. Data has been rounded to two significant figures.
