As cool as it is,... mid rise heatpumps. Would be a great time for the Mamdani NYC building reform to skip the usual step to concentrate on #masstimber when it's really the timber, straw, hemp, earth, reuse, retrofit challenge to master the climate issues. It's a palette. www.nyc.gov/content/dam/...

First sci-fi TV show / movie with a positive non-fig-leaf biobased material culture in the future is Star Trek Starfleet Academy. It's a #masstimber campus. Did not see straw and hemp yet and addition of new stories to existing buildings though, so there is room for improvement.
