It's green washing at its best, but I'm a big fan of these wood building initiatives.

That said, it's still fuck Amazon!

Hm, the photos looks like the exterior walls and roofing are plywood, while the floor is concrete, columns are steel, and roof trusses are steel. And the upper half of the wall is glass. So how much of it is wood, really? 30%? If I lived in a house made of these materials, I would not claim to live in a house built of wood.

My old boss called his factory completely made out of concrete sustainable, because he had PV on the roof and fake green plants in the office space. He called it Green Factory. Sadly no /s.
