#22 - Wooden Cities
Hi Greensters 🌿
🏗️ Stockholm is going all-in on timber. In a world still building with concrete and steel, Sweden is proving that cities can grow and stay green - unveiling Stockholm Wood City, a $1.25 billion experiment in sustainable urban life.
🔥 With construction responsible for over a third of global emissions, this new district could redefine how we build - swapping gray skylines for warm, living wood.
🍝 And speaking of comfort done right - we’ve got a creamy roast garlic mushroom pasta that’s as earthy and satisfying as the forests inspiring Sweden’s wooden revolution.

🥗 The Green Meal
🍄 Creamy Roast Garlic Mushroom & Onion Pasta brings the same natural warmth as Stockholm’s timber buildings - rich, rustic, and comforting. Mushrooms are one of the most sustainable foods we can eat, using little land and water while helping keep soils healthy. Combined with roasted garlic, onions, and fresh spinach, this pasta is a reminder that good food doesn’t need to cost the planet - just a few simple ingredients, done well.
♻️ Eco Tip
Awareness: ❄️ Northern winters mean higher heating costs — and bigger carbon footprints. Most homes in Scandinavia and Northern Europe still lose heat through old windows and poor insulation.
Action: 🌬️ Try thermal curtains or window film insulation kits this season. They’re inexpensive, easy to install, and can cut heat loss by up to 25%. Add a draft stopper along doors, and you’ll stay warmer, save money, and reduce emissions — all without turning up the thermostat.
