Advancing Environmental Transparency for Wood Products: Using Life Cycle Data to tell the Sustainability Story of U.S. Wood

The built environment is responsible for nearly 40% of annual global greenhouse gas emissions. In order to avoid the worst climate change scenarios, rapid decarbonization is needed in all sectors. Wood products present a right-now solution to this challenge, as they are significantly lower in embodied carbon than other conventional building materials, and, when sourced from sustainably managed forests, provide numerous environmental benefits. This webinar will walk through the sustainability story of U.S. wood products and show the work we’re doing to tell the story transparently through data and EPDs.
