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 Steel look like the main embodied-carbon drivers in the current palette. Concrete Steel
Lower-carbon levers	No levers surfaced yet.	Look for lower-clinker mixes, reused structure, and scope reductions before fine-grained product swaps. Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons. Track sourcing, certification, and assembly logic rather than assuming timber is automatically low impact.
