Embodied carbon represents a significant portion of the building industry’s carbon footprint; it is essential to utilize low-carbon construction processes and materials now, before the tipping point of the climate crisis is reached. This course discusses the use of LCAs and EPDs as tools to measure the carbon footprint and environmental impacts of building products and how architects and designers can utilize them to make sustainable choices in the design stages of a project. The course also looks at the growing relevance of EPDs in policies and green building standards, such as the Building Design and Construction rating systems of LEED® v4.1 and the upcoming LEED v5.
