Trees are great “tools” to remove carbon from the atmosphere, revitalize nature and tackle climate change. This is why it’s Land Life Company‘s mission to restore the 2 billion hectares of degraded land in the world. Land Life was founded in 2013 on the idea that a business approach and technology can drive

The benefits of biobased constructions are enormous. For people. For nature. For the climate. People have evolved in nature, in the forests and in the fields. Wooden architecture brings nature back into our artificial built environment. We start to feel better: invigorated, healthier and with an increased sense of well-being. As we know, trees
