Abstract
Environmental analysis of wooden furniture, as performed with the Life-cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, will broaden understanding of the environmental impact produced by the entire cycle which extends from tree to furniture in the consumer’s home. This is the foundation for this chapter, and on this basis, we define potential improvement options and indicate the desirability of achieving these options [1].
