Home builders and buyers all around the world are realizing that log houses are a healthy, comfortable type of home design, that has lower overall energy consumption, and better overall performance. A log house also reduces the impact that buildings have on human health and the environment in regards to site selection, design, operation, construction, maintenance, and demolition. The use of more wood for cabin building is a natural and easy way to make a difference for the environment. The wood used in log house designs help to reduce the greenhouse gasses in the environment and store carbons. A healthy forest that is sustainably managed is a readily available solution to help with climate change. On average, an acre of healthy growing forests absorbs almost three tons of carbon dioxide and releases close to 2 tons of oxygen. A log house is also an option that helps to reduce the impact of buildings on human health.
