This webinar brings together Carbon Wise to explore the role of embodied carbon and the growing use of mass timber in Canadian construction. 

We'll begin by clarifying key definitions like Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and embodied carbon. Next, we'll map out the policy landscape, from federal initiatives to provincial codes and local government action. Finally, we'll dive into a real-world case study comparing a mass timber vs. concrete fire hall, highlighting both carbon impacts and cost drivers.
