The article focuses on the concept of wooden skyscrapers by Canada-based architect Michael Green. Special attention is paid to Green's concept of replacing steel and concrete as building materials. Other topics addressed include Green's career development and concerns related to carbon emissions during the production of concrete and steel. The article mentions Green's white paper "The Case for Tall Wood Buildings," which shows how to use engineered wood to build skyscrapers.
