Just one comment for now:  
Hopefully any purpose grown crops for construction materials can be grown through conservation agriculture (no tilling, cover crops, crop rotation/combinations, and very little if any: fertilizer, herbicides, pesticides etc.) Even better, they are crops grown for food but we harvest the “straw”.

Conservation Agriculture repairs soil health and stores carbon in the soil!! Our agricultural system is in trouble too…

This was a great book.
