Today, I’ll address the following questions…
1. What is the bio-economy?
2. What role is forestry playing?
3. What are the global drivers?
4. What are the important transformative technologies?
5. An example that is making a difference

The wood fibre renaissance is all about rediscovering, adapting and advancing next-generation wood fibre-based biomaterials
…. and next generation airplanes will consist of stronger, lighter and renewable wood-based constituents 6
What about hi-rise timber construction by 2020??

Nanotubes
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are used in baseball bats, tennis racquets, and some car parts because of their greater mechanical strength at less weight per unit volume than that of conventional materials.
Electronic properties of CNTs have made them a candidate for flat panel displays in TVs, batteries, and other electronics. Nanotubes for various uses can be made of materials other than carbon.

Nanofilms
Different nanoscale materials can be used in thin films to make them water-repellent, anti-reflective, self-cleaning, ultraviolet or infrared-resistant, or electrically conductive. Nanofilms are used now on eyeglasses, computer displays, and cameras to protect or treat the surface.

Wood substitution has significant carbon benefits
• On average, every metric ton of wood used instead of something else displaces 3.7 metric tons of CO2.
• In addition, every metric ton of wood in use is sequestering 1.8 metric tons of CO2.
