No. Trees are a natural, renewable resource that can be continually harvested and replanted without serious environmental impact.

Also consider:

• Wood floors last generations making replacement a nonissue
• Wood floors use less water and energy to produce than other flooring options
• Average annual net growth for hardwoods is greater than average annual harvesting
• Indoor air quality is better with wood floors
• Trees are carbon neutral and produce oxygen while storing carbon during lifecycles
• At the end of its extended service life, wood flooring can be burned as fuel or recycled
