Building materials contribute an estimated 5 to 15 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Imagine using materials that not only require less carbon to produce but also actively capture and store it. In California, architect Dylan Johnson and Yvon Chouinard, alongside a seasoned crew, constructed two houses using straw bales that would otherwise have gone to waste.

This innovative project demonstrates that natural building isn’t just better for the climate—it’s a superior way to build. Watch "Home, Grown" to learn more.

Timber framer Jenna Pollard is actively changing the narrative for women in trades. With women making up less than five percent of US carpenters, Pollard shares her expertise with apprentices, believing, "We need women who are the professionals...passing on that knowledge to other women." She's building a future where women are empowered in skilled trades, one dovetail joint at a time.
