The fight to keep perfectly good homes out of the landfill

from What On Earth

The Shíshálh Nation is transporting family homes from Vancouver to B.C.’s Sunshine Coast by barge with the help of a sustainable development company as a lower-emissions way to address its housing crisis. We find out how diverting houses from demolition and retrofitting them into duplexes can be a climate-friendly approach to building a subdivision. Next, we continue our search for greener ways to live by learning about tiny homes – and their (tinier) carbon emissions.
