Beyond zero : the time value of carbon / Counting carbon : what we know and how we know it / Rebuild : what you build mattters, what you don't build matters more / Wood : like never before -- Straw and other fibers : a second harvest / Concrete : the reinvention of artificial rock / Plastic : so great, so awful ... some new directions / To your health : the health benefits and impacts of natural building materials / Size matters : can buidlings be too tall? / Technology and localization : trends at play -- Action plan : places to intervene in a system. by Erin McDade -- by Catherine De Wolf, Barbara Rodriguez Droguett, and Katharina Simonen -- by Larry Strain -- with Chris Magwood and Massey Burke -- with Fernando Martirena and Pauil Jaquin -- by Mikhail Davis, Wes Sullens, and Wil Srubar -- by Pete Walker, Andrew Thomson, and Daniel Maskell -- by Ann Edminster --
"It's time to move past "green buildings," which alone aren't enough to halt climate change. The New Carbon Architecture explores how biomimicry-inspired innovations in architecture and construction--from cities made of wood to insulation grown from straw and mycelium--will pull carbon from the atmosphere, heal the climate, and produce safer, healthier, and more beautiful buildings."--
