Thanks! I knew I'd come across something from UK in past research,
but I wasn't finding it this time around.<br>

<div>Hi all,<br>
<br>
I'm working on a research paper and I'm trying
to find good, reliable information on embodied
energy (or embedded energy) in building
materials. I have some good papers from
Australia and some stuff from CMHC, but I'd be
glad to receive suggestions for other sources.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
