RT @europanels_EPF: We need to 1) stop GHG emissions 2) protect carbon sinks 3) create new carbon stores. Is there enough wood? Yes, if we reforest degraded areas now. Let's combine intelligence with nature, building beautifully, sustainably and inclusively with #wood and #woodbased materials.

RT @europanels_EPF: Solid wood is 5x lighter than concrete, and timber construction with #woodfibreinsulation makes the whole 10x lighter than concrete. Hi-tech (knowledge and skills) meets nature (organic materials such as #wood and #woodbased panels) to make the miraculous possible...

RT @TimberDevUK: Building new urban homes from wood instead of concrete and steel could save about 10% of the carbon budget needed to limit global heating to 2C this century, according to a new study.

Insulation, insulation, insulation should be the political priority but not all insulation materials are the same. Some are 'a cure almost as bad as the disease'. Worth noting that only 'wood fiber board' is in the green zone. @CEIBois @europanels_EPF @SueHayman1 @WKWales

Excellent to hear @TopHatIO have opted for timber frames for their modular homes, homes that will be built for @BoklokUK who in turn are a subsidiary of IKEA & the construction firm Skanska. @CEIBois @TimberDevUK

RT @ShaunSpiers1: On insulation, withdrawing support in 2012 means millions of people can't afford to heat their homes now. Not so trivial. Ditching the zero carbon target for new homes in 2015 was similarly foolish. It's complacency, not "net zero groupthink" that's costing us. 2/2
