(12) The increased sustainable use of harvested wood products can substantially limit emissions into and enhance removals of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. The accounting rules should ensure that Member States accurately reflect in accounts the changes in the harvested wood products pool when they take place, to provide incentives for enhanced use of harvested wood products with long life cycles, thus reducing the use of other, non-biodegradable materials, such as plastic. The Commission should provide guidance on methodological issues related to the accounting for harvested wood products.
