This invention @localworkstudio, not only it's made from 63% recycled waste, but also the bricks are unfired which means it saved lots of energy consumption.

Great evening in beautiful Barbican presenting ‘Living & building with the seasons in the forest city’ alongside the brilliant @sebastiancoxltd @nshasore @richardwentworthcbe Je Ahn from @studioweave @formafantasma #treetalks for the @ArchFoundation curated by @judithloesing
A very memorable, inspiring, sociable and slightly bonkers experience. The initial performance by the @musarcchoir really softened the atmosphere and made the night. Also loved the anarchic panel discussion with @mufarchitectureart @tomemerson6a @tree_russ @johnwrightmushrooms

Incredible love of trees at #treetalks
-8.4m trees covering ⅕ of the London
-90k trees are felled per yr in UK
-40 x more likely to be injured by a wheelie bin than a tree
-Entire London stock of trees sequesters 2% of the carbon in London per annum

In January 2021 we were approached by architects #CarmodyGroake to design a low-carbon waste-based brick for the Design Museum Gent, in Belgium. The bricks have just been approved for use! Thanks to the awesome work by BCMaterials.

Rumours this evening that @DefraGovUK will renege on the manifesto commitment to pay farmers to "protect and enhance our natural environment" are deeply concerning. There is no food security without nature. 1/🧵

The UK just announced it's first ever Red Extreme Heat Warning.
@GeorgeMonbiot on how this is just the tip of the iceberg

I wish everyone on Earth knew how genuinely "off the charts" key planetary trends are right now, and how abnormal and critical it is. Things like atmospheric CO2 fraction, heat extremes on land and ocean, biodiversity loss and extinction rates. All alarms should be going off
