Sustainability Toolbox for Building Designers
Sustainability Toolbox for Building Designers training program equips you with the tools needed to analyze and reduce the carbon footprint throughout a building’s lifecycle. The program helps you lead the change towards carbon-neutral construction and navigate the changing regulatory requirements in the European Union.
The built environment is responsible for nearly 40 % of global carbon emissions. Each building we design locks in these emissions for decades or even centuries. The carbon footprint of a building extends beyond its construction. It encompasses the entire lifecycle, including the carbon emissions from its operation, maintenance, and eventual deconstruction. If we continue building without considering the full building lifecycle, the carbon burden will grow, affecting not just our generation, but many to come.
