Lower-carbon levers	No levers surfaced yet.	Prioritize recycled content, efficient sections, and procurement-specific EPD comparisons. Compare system-level facade options, reduce overspecification, and pair glass choices with structural reductions. Check source geography, fabrication intensity, and whether stone is structural, cladding, or finish-only.
