As buildings have become more energy efficient the concept of low carbon construction materials (that is, materials which result in low levels of carbon emissions during their manufacture and transportation – referred to as low embodied carbon) has gone from relative obscurity to critically important as its growing impact is better understood. Building codes and corporate policies around the world, including government regulations and incentives, are being revised with an eye to reducing the embodied carbon impact of construction which is currently responsible for 11% of global emissions. Join our experts Ryan Zizzo, Zahra Teshnizi and Larissa Sequeira to learn more about decarbonizing the built environment beyond energy efficiency, and understand where the building industry is heading. Whether you are an asset owner, real estate investor, construction manufacturer, or building designer, we will break down the latest trends that are affecting your industry.
