Daniel Fuhrhop published the book "Verbietet das Bauen!" by oekom Verlag on 24 August 2015. The blog bears the same title and messages on the topic are published accordingly.

4,996 single- and multi-family houses in timber construction were approved in Bavaria in 2015. This early indicator from the State Statistical Office sets a new record in the readiness for timber construction. In terms of building permits, the timber construction rate is thus already at 19.6 percent. In the last 30 years, never before have so many residential buildings made of wood been planned in Bavaria and the above-mentioned value exceeds the construction completions of 2015 by nine percent or 429 residential buildings.
