Doesn’t all of the wood utilized in a pole building frame help to destroy forests?
Area for area, pole buildings use far less wood volume than any other wood frame structure. Wood is the only readily renewable natural resource and it is increasing in reserves every year. Today there is 25% more wood volume growing in the United States than just 50 years ago. Besides this fact, a steel frame building takes 4,000 times more coal, oil and natural gas to process than a wood frame.
