1. The role of biobased building materials in the climate impacts of construction : Effects of increased use of biobased materials in the Swedish building sector
Abstract : A significant share of the global climate change impacts can be attributed to the construction sector. One mitigation strategy is increasing the use of biobased materials. Life cycle assessment (LCA) has been used to demonstrate the benefits of this, but forest complexities create uncertainty due to omission of key aspects. READ MORE
