The report focuses much of its analysis on building operations, and with good reason. Although embodied energy, material selection, construction, and demolition are important in a life cycle approach to buildings, the largest environmental impacts are a result of the operation of buildings. Operations account for approximately 85 percent of the lifetime energy in commercial buildings, but are simultaneously affected by the one-time capital choices made during design and construction. SDTC understands the critical importance of a full lifecyde approach, and incorporates the ent...

This will be the first commercial hemp fibre processing plant in North America," [Don Dewar] said. "We think there is growing interest in these kinds of products.
In 1999, one year after it was made legal to produce non-THC hemp as a commercial industrial crop in Canada, a California outfit called Consolidated Growers and Processors Inc. tried and failed to build a $25-million hemp processing plant in Dauphin. (THC is the active ingredient that produces the "high" derived from illegal marijuana/hemp plants.)
