The implications of catastrophic disasters resulting from rapid climate change are increasingly becoming a reality for many parts of the world. As the need for resilience and durability in construction grows, there remains an opportunity to slow and mitigate much of the risk through sustainable design. This is where architects, builders, and manufacturers wield significant influence over our future trajectory. The Sustainability Academy delves into the myriad options available to architects dedicated to fostering a safer, healthier, and more sustainable planet for all. Courses offered cover diverse topics, from strategies for reducing carbon footprints and halting greenhouse gas emissions to recognizing the communal and social advantages of environmental stewardship. Key topics focus on understanding the impacts of supply chain management, transportation costs, and reducing embodied carbon, all with the aim to ensure that occupants inhabit spaces that are environmentally responsible, comfortable, healthy, and beautiful. Join us with a renewed commitment to effecting tangible change for real people by designing spaces that meet and exceed sustainability objectives.
