För att de globala utsläppen av CO2 ska minska bör industrier se över sin användning av olja och gas i sina processer och byta det till något som är CO2-neutralt. Om detta ska vara möjligt bör ersättningsbränslet vara förnyelsebart och samtidigt ha liknande förbränningsegenskaper som kan förväntas av olja och gas. Träpulver är ett bränsle som anses ha potential att uppfylla dessa krav. Denna rapTo reduce the global emissions of CO2, industries have to do an overview of their oil and gas usage in their processes and substitute it to something CO2-neutral. To implement this, the new fuel has to be renewable and have similar combustion properties as oil and natural gas. Pulverised wood is a fuel that is believed to fulfill these qualifications.

Since the 1980s, fertility rates in OECD countries stayed almost stable at levels below replacement (2.1 children on average per woman), which can have significant feedback effects on the social welfare system.
