#Timber, wood energy & forest management - "Sustainable #forestry is more complicated than just cutting down one tree and replacing it with another. Some clever thinking is required." #biomass ow.ly/JTy950vHJs0

Awesome Shot of #PDX Flatiron. One of the most recent #Masstimber buildings fully finished and occupied to hit the scene. Also has the one of the best views of the city.

We've all forgotten to bring our own bags to the store. It's OK - there's still a sustainable option! Paper bags are made from sustainably managed forests or recycled paper so they're renewable, recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable. Happy #PaperBagDay #forestproud

Significantly lighter than concrete, carbon negative and constructed using wood exclusively from sustainably managed forests, Structurlam's CrossLam CLT opens the door to a new, ecological way to construct mass timber buildings for the twenty-first century. #masstimber

CLT is very much the material of the moment thanks to its ecological advantages, and new projects that employ it in a novel way often feel like manifestos of sorts. ow.ly/lcd250ubVfy

This is the kind of building #masstimber was made for. It goes up quickly, it doesn't require a lot of trucks, and being small enough not to need any fireproofing over the wood, looks just gorgeous inside. The architects have left…lnkd.in/gizhvbh lnkd.in/gwNYWtJ

"Wooden surfaces make a room feel warmer and cosier and they also have a calming effect. In these properties, wood beats all other normal surface materials."

Built with Structurlam's Crosslam CLT, the Garibaldi Fire Hall is an environmentally friendly, leading-edge building. The use of #masstimber significantly reduced energy consumption through the use of low carbon energy sources, also leading to a drop in greenhouse gas emissions.
