Although humanity started off exclusively using biomass as the source of chemicals and energy, finite and heavily polluting fossils have overtaken the role as the dominant energy and chemical source since the industrial revolution. Wood fibre offers an abundant, renewable carbon negative substrate with infinite potential to support and advance a design based circular bioeconomy across a myriad of products and sectors.
