Join us at 4pm today, for MECLA's Spotlight on Ways Forward with Trees 🌳, where our very own Darren Minto, along with a collection of experts in native forest science, agroforestry, architecture and timber manufacturing will discuss the complexities and challenges of the decarbonisation of the construction sector. The good news? We can make a difference, right now. And we are excited to share how. Link to register below. See you then!
🌳Wood products are widely viewed as one of the key solutions to decarbonising the construction sector. The timber industry is a complex ecosystem spanning forestry through to engineered products manufacturing. 🌳 🌴 As the ways we manufacture, design and work with wood continue to develop in Australia, so too do methods in management of naturally regenerating and purposefully planted forests. And new questions around carbon accounting for the forest industry are being asked. 🌴 🌲In MECLA’s Spotlight on Ways Forward with Trees, a collection of experts in native forest science, agroforestry, timber product manufacturing and architecture come together to explore how this ecosystem is evolving, and to discuss some positive directions forward for Australia’s timber industry in the context of a climate and biodiversity emergency.🌲 Presenters will include: Paul Haar - Architect and Honorary Principal Fellow in the School of Architecture and Building at the University of Melbourne Patrick Baker - Professor of Silviculture and Forest Ecology in the School of Ecosystem and Forest Sciences at the University of Melbourne Mark Wootton - Owner of Jigsaw Farms Daniel Wright - Director and National Business Development Manager at Australian Sustainable Hardwoods Darren Minto - Client Relationship Manager at Crafted Hardwoods
