SUMMARY:Cambium Fallen Lumber Tour: An Ecological Design Collective Grounding
DESCRIPTION:Join the Ecological Design Collective for an exclusive tour of Cambium Carbon\, a company transforming the urban wood supply chain through innovation and circular economy principles. Cambium partners with cities and local businesses to salvage fallen trees\, keeping valuable materials out of landfills and giving them a second life as CarbonSmart™ wood—sustainable\, high-quality lumber with a transparent and traceable supply chain. \n\n\n\nDuring the tour\, you’ll get an inside look at their workspace\, learn how they are restoring local supply chains\, and see firsthand how technology and partnerships are driving scalable climate solutions. \n\n\n\nAbout Cambium Carbon \n\n\n\n\n\nEach year 36 million trees fall in American cities. The vast majority are mulched\, landfilled\, or burned—at eye-popping economic and environmental cost. At the same time\, cities struggle to equitably reforest neighborhoods\, with communities of color long burdened by unequal access to benefits that urban trees provide. Connecting these two challenges\, Cambium Carbon leverages the urban tree life cycle\, showing that by processing—rather than discarding—downed urban trees\, we can create a waste-to-value revenue stream that returns needed funds to replant low-canopy neighborhoods. In this circular economy model\, green jobs are created through urban “Reforestation Hubs” that could upcycle an estimated 46 million tons of merchantable wood every year into products such as lumber\, bioenergy\, and compost. Building the infrastructure to upcycle such wood into high-value durable goods creates an opportunity to engage residents who face barriers to traditional employment\, while providing training in technical skills across the tree life cycle. Meanwhile\, using salvaged wood displaces emissions-intense global supply chains. And by investing in tree planting among underresourced communities\, Cambium Carbon can catalyze carbon sequestration\, stormwater management\, air pollution mitigation\, and energy savings in places that need them most. \n\n\n\nLearn more about Cambium Carbon: https://cambiumcarbon.com/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nItinerary: \n\n\n\nAt 5 pm we will meet inside the Cambium Carbon Offices & Workspace (1589 Sulphur Spring Road\, Suite 111\, Halethorpe MD\, 21227). From 5:10 pm to 6 pm we will tour the Cambium offices\, lumber yard\, and processing center. \n\n\n\nEvent Series: \n\n\n\nThis event is a continuation of the EDC’s 2024-25 itinerary for “Reimagining Land\,” anchored in a monthly series of “Groundings” that explore Baltimore’s ecology\, history\, and contemporary place-making efforts through experiential events.
