Without question for me:
And when I see her in the park
It barely merits a remark
How we stand the standard distance distant strangers stand apart
Ridiculously clever and heartbreaking, by the late David Berman of the Silver Jews/Purple Mountains, written after he’d split up with his wife.

Ha. Not nothing anyway. That concrete slab would add a fair bit. The timber would be a bit, and apparently it came from Denmark - Bavarian Forest good for nothing? - so the road freight would add a bit too. And that super high ceiling wouldn’t help in terms of a kg/m2 based CO2e total.

Is a green home more than a house? What about outside? Ranking 13th, 36.6% of respondents to our #SMARTER4EU Green Homes Sentiments Survey said #biodiversity was essential. That seems low, given a manicured lawn is a desert for insects & animals. Have your say: www.surveymonkey.com/r/BYPQVJH

Totally agreed on sufficiency Annie - a subject we write about in the mag.
Isolated, overly large statement homes aren’t the answer - even if passive and bio-based.
But we live car free in a modestly sized low energy apartment, so my daughter sometimes daydreams of houses like this.
