Quebec-based Cecobois has launched an ambitious campaign to promote wood as a viable, low-carbon material for future construction projects in Quebec. This initiative – entitled Construction bas carbon avec le bois (Low-carbon construction with wood), or CBCB – encourages the province’s architects, engineers and property developers to increase the use of wood in new buildings as part of the effort to decarbonize the built environment. Cecobois, an independent, non-profit agency funded by the Quebec government, Natural Resources Canada and the wood industry, is committed to accelerating mass timber construction and the corresponding use of wood products. …Parallel to the announcement of the CBCB campaign, Cecobois was also awarded $1.2 million in new funding from the Government of Quebec as part of its Policy on the Integration of Wood in Construction. …Second only to B.C. as Canada’s leading softwood lumber producer and endowed with vast forest regions, Quebec is ideally positioned to harness wood as a natural, low-carbon renewable resource.
