idk, burning wood for heat is very carbon intensive. the neolithic builders aren't free of sin

Good point - I tend to think of it as fairly carbon-neutral but that depends very much on replacing the trees you cut down… which the Neolithic people clearly did not, since the British Isles used to be a lot more wooded (including Salisbury Plain, which was a forest!).
