Green Construction: The Future of Building
March 17, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
Thursday, March 17 @ 2:00 — 3:15 PM
The built environment is one of the greatest areas of embodied carbon emissions and challenges to carbon-reduction efforts. A recent study indicated that new construction could consume up to 20% of the global carbon budget to 2050 without changes to material production and deployment. At the same time, demand is increasing for affordable, high-quality housing.
This GreenTech Webinar will explore developments in construction that aim to reduce the carbon footprint of commercial and residential buildings at all points of the supply chain, potentially turning one of the most stubborn areas of the carbon footprint into a global opportunity for sustainability and housing equity. We will be joined by experts in building materials and design to explore the future of building.
