In this paper, we explain the role of the ISO 13391 standard series on greenhouse gas dynamics of wood and wood-based products concerning the need for better GHG information on wood products and forests. Our goal is to provide a constructive critique, based on ECOS participating in the process. We consider the progress it offers and its shortcomings, as well as how it can be used or misused.
