The fight to keep perfectly good homes out of the landfill
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.
