Wooden buildings could avoid 106 billion tons or carbon dioxide emissions between now and 2100, says a new study by the Potsdam Institute.
A recent article at New Scientist tells us about a process to recycle wood, but with a twist: the process … [continued]
Modvion is building wooden towers for wind turbines, and the leading forest products firm Stora Enso is among those lending a hand.
The dramatic Sara Cultural Center in Skellefteå, Sweden is one of the tallest wooden structures in the world.
In response to evidence that it may be worse for the climate than burning coal and gas, the EU is … [continued]
Reduce your carbon production by improving the efficiency of your heating/cooling appliances and (hot) water
When the CyberTruck came out on the stage, I was as shocked as everyone with the look of the vehicle. I was impressed by the specs and intrigued by Tesla’s ability to innovate in a direction nobody expected, structural efficiency of the body and frame. I was one of the few people, however, who expected a more radical surprise, like an autonomous interior without a steering wheel or cold air jets to fly over rough terrain. We may still get those in the future, but today I’m going to dive into the choices the Tesla team made and even ask if they considered something more out of the box than they released.
Many people in India heat and cook with wood, cow dung, kerosene, or coal. Eliminating those fuels could improve the country’s outdoor air quality significantly.
The tallest wooden building in the US will be constructed in Portland, Oregon. CLT technology allows buildings to be constructed faster with less waste and with lower carbon emissions than steel or concrete structure.
