    What’s the point of comparing it to flying? That’s completely meaningless. There’s no possible building material that is “climate friendly” while we’re still using fossil fuels for industry and construction. The only question of significance here is wether wood is more sustainable than other forms of building material. They make no attempt to make a comparison to the ecological impact of metal or concrete production.
