Boy from the city chops wood - Camp Rockley

Having acquired some extra tools for the site through FB marketplace a neighbour subsequently mentioned I could collect some firewood where a branch had come down down the road. Grabbing a few proper logs gave me the chance to chop some wood which is a rewarding experience.
I'm always trying to do my best to minimise my footprint on this fragile planted so when I posted this to FB I got some good feedback re cooking and heating with firewoods as opposed to gas...
"Chop chop! A branch came down locally so I had a chance to test my log splitter. I only ever make a very small oven like fire mostly for cooking. I do think about the carbon involved but I reckon that using gas burners must be more carbon per meal... but if there are any experts on this subject let me know!
J.L. said "No harm in using a bit of fallen timber to cook. Gas is a little more efficient, less carbon and less particles in the smoke However, if you take into account the mining, processing, transport, logistics infrastructure, marketing and distribution of a few litres of gas compared to using fallen timber which will naturally rot and release some carbon anyway then it kinda evens out. Plus if you put the ashes in the compost/worm farm you can grow plants to offset it. ps a lot of white ash can when concentrated can unbalance the ph levels of the worm farm so spread it nicely."
T.D. said "Gas as of yet is still made from fossil fuel (read extracted from ancient reservoirs of decomposed matter) timber because of its nature is a renewable."

As far as the environment goes and carbon emissions etc is it ok to use wood to cook and heat in the country or would gas be better?..please let me know in the comments...some info is in the description of this video. Thanks!
