Greening our built environments with wood .: Fo4-123/2018E-PDF
"The popularity of building materials that come from renewable resources, such as wood, is increasing worldwide.Wood-based materials use less energy and emit fewer greenhouse gases (GHG) and pollutants over their life cycle than traditional, energy-intensive construction materials. Consequently, using wood can help reduce the carbon footprint of most buildings and lower GHG emissions created by the built environment. In turn, building with wood can help Canada achieve its climate change goals and increase the competitiveness of its forest industry by fostering the demand for Canadian wood products”--P. [1].
