In the U.S., construction is a big source of waste and pollution, we all know that.

But now, we're starting to see a number of companies and designers are already experimenting with food-based materials for construction.

There's been a steady decline in the amount of available laborers in the construction industry for a few years now.
You've probably already seen and experienced some of the impacts.

But where did this labor shortage begin, and why?
