Aulë was fucking savage, when his wife Yavanna worried that his creations, the Dwarves, would cut down all the trees, his response was “everyone is gonna cut down the trees”. Brutal.
Nevertheless, they will need wood. Absolute dickhead. She should have made her trees eat dwarves in response.
And she did! The ents were explicitly made to protect the trees from the other races of middle earth
I would assume dwarves need the least wood. Their houses are made from stone and they most likely use mined coal for their smithing instead of charcoal.
The earth is kinda young though, not a lot of scientific reasoning for there to be coal to mine.
