Scientists discover middwood, a new wood type that captures more carbon

Scientists discovered a new type of wood, "middwood," with intermediate microfibril structures, neither coniferous nor broadleaf. This newly identified wood grows rapidly and stores significant amounts of carbon dioxide, making it highly effective for carbon sequestration. The discovery of middwood, found in species like the tulip tree, could offer a valuable tool in combating climate change due to its enhanced carbon-capturing abilities.
