The document discusses sustainable building and natural building technologies. It outlines issues with current building practices such as using too much energy and resources and generating too much waste and carbon dioxide. It then presents several solutions to these problems, including improving a building's thermal coherence through high-performing insulation and air-tightness, incorporating passive design features, improving moisture management, using efficient appliances, and providing better training for construction professionals.
