What is the relationship between healthy forests and robust markets for forest products? How can mass timber help reduce the carbon impact from housing construction?
New England Forestry Foundation and partners will hold a Taking on Climate Change and Affordable Housing with Mass Timber workshop at Boston University’s Center for Computing & Data Sciences in Boston on October 22nd from 8:30 am to 2:45 pm EDT.
As part of the New England Climate-Smart Commodities project, the New England Forestry Foundation (NEFF) and its partners are hosting the first in a series of workshops. The series aims to grow the market for climate-smart forest products, such as mass timber, and connect with efforts to incentivize climate-smart forest management across our region.
At this workshop, participants will hear from mass timber experts from New England and throughout the U.S. who have successfully integrated mass timber into affordable housing projects to simultaneously address two of the biggest challenges of our time: reducing carbon impact while increasing housing supply.
Cost of this workshop is $30.
