Sure, put millions of the poor in wooden tenement structures. What could possibly go wrong?
Yes, and wooden skyscrapers will probably consume lots of it when they go up in flames.
Loved all our old wooden boats chinking and after haul out they would leak it was fun
Crazy concerns leading to crazy reasoning leading to crazy results.
Might as well claim that wooden towers will keep the dragons away as well as combating man made global warming.
“Benton Johnson, an engineer who worked on the report, said that wooden high-rises could help solve the growing worldwide problem of providing adequate housing to the billions of people who are, or will be, living in cities while also addressing climate change.”
“OR WILL BE...”
Right in keeping with trying to make the dream of population control/eradication come true on the part of the power elite.

Got it. Leftists are retarded.
All based on a false premise. And every bit of it is wrong.
The premise is bogus.
Don’t poor people already live in buildings made out of wood?
Additionally the premise that CO2 is a problem is also bogus.
More importantly, we need to concern ourselves with the threat of starfrost blinkers and build phaluzalas out of billycorn shoots.
Lower CO2 levels ?
I would think all these libtards could help by just stop breathing CO2 out....
Be part of the solution...libtards..
When the lady upstairs puts on her heels and traverses to the kitchen, the downstairs neighbors know it. Don’t even get me started on children. They run everywhere.
Having lived in a wooden 5 story wooden over concrete garage mid rise in Colorado.
yes, for those that think CO is a huge problem, i recommend living only in tall wood frame buildings, especially in San Francisco and LA
As noted above, the premise is wrong. Using wood won’t control CO2. Mammals breath in oxygen, and exhale CO2. Trees breath in CO2 and exhale oxygen. I don’t think Benton Johnson has studied the oxygen/CO2 cycle.
Environmentalists have been (perhaps rightly) seeking to prevent the wholesale cutting down of the rain forests. What does Benton think wooden towers would call for? Wood, right? Where are the most abundant supplies? You guessed it, boys and girls... THE RAINFORESTS!” What happens to the planet if the largest oxygen producers are all cut down in the name of reducing CO2? You got it right again! CO2 BUILDS UP IN THE ABSENCE OF THE TREES!!!!! This would create the very situation he claims he is trying to alleviate.
The “logic” of the left always trips up all over itself, leading to disaster, if allowed to be put into manifestation. There is a reason why one of the most popular treatises before the US Revolution was a thing called “Common Sense.”
(Sorry, george76 and whenifhow, I meant to ping you to my post 7 on this thread!)
The Towering Inferno.
“And we know that we need to lower CO2.
I stopped reading as soon as I saw this. The guy is an idiot.
Wood comes from trees. Trees absorb carbon dioxide. So to lessen the amount of CO2, cut down millions of trees for wood to build structures that reduce CO2.
Sounds like the liberal “logic” hellhounds are off the leash again.
Until the day it burns.
