This Year's Holiday Gift List and Book List are sponsored by: Stone Architect
https://suno.com/s/VcvQiyV94XdoEMjA
oday's episode is sponsored by Stone Architect, the natural-stone sourcing company behind the movement Granite Your Planet™ — inspiring cities, architects, and builders to choose materials that truly stand the test of time.
Stone Architect’s mission is simple: build for centuries, not landfills.
While concrete and manufactured products break down every 7 to 20 years — creating massive CO₂ emissions — natural granite is one of the most sustainable building materials on Earth. It’s carbon-light, chemically untouched, and built by nature to last hundreds of years.
From major city streetscapes to public parks, waterfronts, and private developments across North America, Stone Architect helps design teams realize projects that are stronger, cleaner, and dramatically more sustainable for our planet.
If you believe in smarter materials, lower emissions, and public spaces created with intention — join the movement at stonearchitect.org
**Stone Architect — Granite Your Planet™.
Build for the next generation.””
