A Holistic View of Carbon in the Built Environment

This course examines the principles associated with carbon emissions over the life of a building. The carbon footprint of a building does not begin when the building becomes operational but rather during design and continues through demolition or deconstruction. The role that design and construction professionals play in regard to product transparency will also be discussed.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Understand the basic principles of carbon emissions and neutrality.
• Understand the difference between operational and embodied carbon emissions.
• Review options for the reduction of carbon emissions, particularly embodied carbon emissions.
• Examine the concept of product transparency in design and construction.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered via webinar or face-to-face presentation. Available sessions shown below.
