Carbon signals	Bamboo and Glass look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. Bamboo Glass	landscape and building gives us a typology starting point even though the work does not have a recorded material palette yet. No dominant drivers yet.
Lower-carbon levers	Use classification and product-level EPD research to place this material more precisely. Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions. Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.	No levers surfaced yet.
