Increase Productivity with Environmental Design. 🌱 Environmental design is crucial! 🏠 You are a product of your environment. 🔒 Make it difficult: Increase friction. 📺 Watching too much TV? When you're done, take out the battery. Give it to someone. Watch TV only after telling them what show you plan to watch to avoid mindless viewing. 🎮 Game the system!

Is your school system focused on reducing your environmental footprint? Embodied Carbon emissions account for about 30 percent of a building’s total emissions and should not be dismissed in new builds and renovations.

"Design plays a pivotal role in determining a building’s carbon footprint, and the earlier embodied carbon is considered in the design process, the greater the potential to reduce it." I loved contributing towards this article discussing the impacts, design practices, challenges, and future of embodied carbon #sustainability
Embodied carbon is a complex, often hidden factor in construction, but it’s one where meaningful change can occur. Maria kordjamshidi, Lauren Wallace, Megan Blizzard share how addressing embodied carbon is reshaping how the industry approaches #sustainability.

I have been finished reading a comprehensive handbook related to nature based solutions that published by ILPÖ University of Stuttgart UNaLab. It is a helpful resource to furmulate a green building strategy. In the case of DGNB German Sustainable Building Council certification, on the criteria of ECO 2.6 Climate Resilience, the needs of nature-based solutions is essential beside to prevent damage caused by natural hazard. I am realy curious how the developer/designer commit to implementing it? It looks simple but some how has a different interest to be applied.

“Do you hear the wind rustling the tree (...)? This is how nature tells us to stop for a moment, breathe and just be in the present.” James Norbury British writer and illustrator. With a regenerative eye: the wind strengthens the trees trunk. Because of this, the trees will be massive and long-lived. This prepares them for the shocking storm and extremes. The trees on the edge of the forest also protect the trees living inside the forest. A complex system that is usually not taken into account in deforestation. There are many similarities in business life as well. By breaking down the supporting framework, the entire system becomes vulnerable. Regenerative design is much more complex than we first think. Within the circular system, there is an emotional and social layer that goes beyond regulations and technological protocols. How do you feel about this?

Decarbonization is the current and future trend in sustainability for the built environment, but to truly make an impact on reducing one’s carbon footprint, the industry needs to be considering more than just operational carbon. Myself and two of our carbon accounting experts address how to make meaningful change in the article below.
