Architects Explore Solutions to Achieve Carbon-Neutral Future
Copenhagen, Denmark -- The American Institute of Architects’ (AIA) Carl Elefante, AIA president, is calling on architects, industries and governments to do more to achieve a carbon neutral built environment by the 2050 deadline.
Elefante moderated a panel discussion—at the Alliance to Save Energy’s EE Global Forum in Copenhagen—where architects and industry leaders examined how we can better support carbon-reduction goals. The conversation focused on designing high-performance buildings, retrofitting the existing building stock, promoting renewable energy, reducing embodied carbon, and utilizing AIA’s 2030 Commitment program.
