I'm just going to throw this out there, but what if we use 100% recycled cardboard? I mean, it's technically a building material, right? Plus, it's free and environmentally friendly. Just a thought.

Ah, the age-old dilemma of choosing between certified materials and keeping within budget. I'd have to go with D, because who doesn't love a good wheatboard, am I right? Cheaper and more sustainable, what's not to love?

Hmm, I don't know, but C seems like a good option. 50% Rainforest Alliance Certified wood veneer is still a decent amount of certified material.

I think the correct answer is D. 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified wheatboard with a total cost of $2,000 USD. It has the highest percentage of certified material, which should have the largest contribution to the credit.
