Here is a video that highlights the reduced lumber requirements for building with hempcrete: #Sustainable #SustainableHomeBuilding #EnergyEfficient #CarbonNegative #Agriculture #FarmRaised #SaveTheTrees

#Hempcrete Building Code approval applies to one- or two-family dwellings and townhouses plus should increase the availability of hemp-based building materials and facilitate greener construction projects around the U.S. source: #Gangapreneur

My suggestion- stop Thermal Bridging with Hemp Insulation! Sustainable-Eco Friendly - Hemp is the Future of Green Buildings. stlouisrenewableenergy.blogspot.com/2016/12/home-f… thermal bridging is eliminating heat and cold transfer into a product aka insulation

Here is a simple example of how Thermal Bridging is stopped with Insulation. Most Kitchen Utensil products have a handle made of wood, silicone, or rubber. Those handles keep our hands from getting burned by the heat of Stove.

Eliminating and Reducing Thermal Bridging is KEY and Number 1 requirement for reducing the Heating and Cooling requirements for a Building. aka: Money Saver.

Sustainable Hemp Insulation Eliminates Heat and Cold from entering a building. example stlouisrenewableenergy.blogspot.com/2016/12/home-f…
