Overview
Are you interested in projects that demonstrate feasible ways to reduce embodied carbon?
This Decarb Lunch features the Passive House certified Marpole Community Centre, which served as a pilot project to test the City of Vancouver Embodied Carbon Guidelines.
Forest Borch from reLoad Sustainable Design and Caroline Inglis from Diamond Schmitt Architects outlined how the project team worked together to meet their ambitious embodied carbon reduction goal and shared five key lessons learned that demonstrate that achieving the City of Vancouver’s target of a 40% reduction of embodied carbon in new buildings by 2030 can be achieved today!
Thanks to the financial support of BC Hydro and the City of Vancouver, this event was free of charge.
