Carbon neutral does not mean zero ecological impact, it means carbon neutral.

Usually in the form of using renewable power during production, and planting trees.

It's very possible for something to be carbon neutral, even if some materials were mined.

That said, I'd love to see more use of recycled or recovered construction materials.
