Carbon signals	education and campus building gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet. No dominant drivers yet.	Concrete and Stucco look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. Concrete Stucco
Lower-carbon levers	No levers surfaced yet.	Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps. Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely. Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
