We’re happy to be attending today’s @FPAC_APFC National Forest Policy Conference! Many great topics for discussion.
The @FPAC_APFC National Forest Policy Conference is in #Ottawa today. Thanks @KerryPattersonB & @DerekNighbor ! A great day of panels including discussions on how we address Canada's housing crisis. Affordability & sustainability go hand in hand with #AffordableHousing

This #EarthDay, AWC celebrates the growing international support for sustainable building products. At COP 28, the Forest and Climate Leaders Partnership reaffirmed the U.S. and the world’s commitment to policies that support the use of wood from sustainably managed forests.

AWC staff meeting selfie time. Taking a break during our staff meeting at our HQ. With some new faces on the team, everyone thought it would be a great idea to have an in-person gathering this time. Now, back to work everyone!

Thanks to all who turned out this morning to learn more about #masstimber and the value and flexibility it’s capable of bringing to our built environment. Thanks to @HUDgov for organizing the 2023 Innovative Housing Showcase and our President/CEO for leading the tour.

The #masstimber used in @flypdx is a great example of using resilient, carbon-friendly, and sustainable solutions to existing structural materials. Key to a #sustainable future!
Today, I visited Portland International Airport in Oregon to see firsthand how they’re improving their infrastructure. We’re investing $25 billion across the country to upgrade and modernize America’s airports. It’s just one example of how we’re building a better America.

#MassTimber allows wood to achieve new heights. It’s a strong, low-carbon alternative to the other major building materials. #ForestProductsWeek
