AIA 2030 Commitment: architects prepare to meet the challengeBuildings are the largest single contributor to the production of greenhouse gases, responsible for almost half of the total annual production. As designers and builders of these buildings, we recognize the need to exercise leadership in creating the built environment. This seminar provides an overview of the four components that make up the AIA's 2030 Challenge. It also explains in detail how to calculate the annual carbon dioxide output for the projects designed by an architectural firm. Learn about the available software options for modeling the energy usage and carbon dioxide production of small residential and commercial projects and how these projects can address the 2030 Challenge. |
