Bay Area Deconstruction Working Group - September 25, 2024
Since BADWG’s last meetings, deconstruction activities in the Bay Area have been increasing in both frequency and in scope. This is true of both voluntary and mandatory efforts. As the supply of reclaimed products and materials increases, another barrier to closing the loop on circular construction is becoming urgent: generating demand to reuse these salvaged materials.

The preservation of structures mirrors the pinnacle of waste prevention and reusing building materials by deconstructing older structures instead of demolishing and landfilling helps achieve carbon mitigation, zero waste and circular economy goals.
