What I've Been up to!
To meet our climate targets, buildings will need to be built "beyond zero" with net zero emissions in operation and net carbon storage in materials. This new book points the way to achieving this ambitious but necessary target.

How extensive are the emissions that arise from the manufacturing of home building materials? And what can we do to get these emissions down to zero, or better?
This research paper for Natural Resources Canada is the first in-depth study of material carbon emissions in the home building sector. The report helps us to understand the scale of material emissions and shows how smart material choices are a key climate solution. |
Endeavour Centre's first online course is a masterclass in the use of hempcrete as building insulation.
From interested beginner to building professionals, this course will help you understand the materials, mixes, placing, building science and permitting for hempcrete construction. Chris Magwood is your lead instructor for this masterclass, bringing 25 years of hempcrete experience directly to your home! The course features extensive video lessons and supporting PDFs, and includes two live Q&A sessions with Chris. |
