\"\"Dear Fourth Door mailing list folks<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been asked by Rowland Keable, Mr Rammed Earth (at least on this small Atlantic island) to let people know about this year\u2019s CLAYFEST, which this year is\u00a0 happening virtually on Zoom at the end of the week – check\u00a0here<\/b><\/a>.<\/b> So, I am doing so.<\/p>\n

In addition, a couple of other things which could be of overall general interest.<\/p>\n

The Construction Scotland Innovation Centre announced a Scottish \u2018Homegrown\u2019 regional timber construction initiative this week see\u00a0here<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bernard Planterose, our friend in the north (of Scotland, though just south of Ullapool), wrote to tell me of the overhaul of their\u00a0Northwoods Design website<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>by his son, Sam, highlighting their timber design and construction family commune-in-the-woods set up. Looks funkier than the old site, though many fewer words.<\/p>\n

Bill McKibben has penned a Bill McKibben type piece in the\u00a0New Yorker\u00a0<\/b><\/a>website focused on PR companies who work for the Fossil Fuel Industry, and PR activistas\u00a0 aiming to push their sector into thinking again about signing up to promote Exxon and the like.<\/p>\n

A World GBC press release arrived relating that they have written to the head of the Glasgow COP 26 \u2018requesting’ a\u00a0Built Environment Day<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>during next years November\u00a0 razzamatazz. Good luck with that one\u2019s tempted to say.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile over in Reykjavik a small boy is befriended by a\u00a0peace loving swan<\/b><\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n
