➢ A tree burned emits no more than a tree decayed on the forest floor.

Ah, I knew they claimed that burning wood was carbon neutral, but I could
not remember why.  You just summarized it well.  Though there are other junk
from burning wood that we don’t want  to breath (as noted by Mark:)

And surely some of that carbon takes years to return to the atmosphere if
not forever and so that can help our short-term problem  better by not
burning it (yet)...
