Additionally, Architecture 2030 will be releasing our much anticipated Carbon Smart Materials Palette, an attribute-based design and specification guidance aimed at reducing the embodied carbon impacts of the built environment.
Carbon Smart Building Day will be held on September 11 as a Global Climate Action Summit affiliated event to introduce the latest tools, resources and programs necessary to decarbonize the built environment. It will include the Carbon Smart Materials Palette which focuses on today’s most carbon-intensive materials, as well as naturally low-carbon alternatives.
