ULI Sacramento virtual program: Embodied Carbon 101, What is it and why should Real Estate and Land Use Professionals care?
REGISTRATION DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 6
ULI Sacramento Climate Resilience & Innovation Committee (CRI) invites members to a virtual program:
Embodied Carbon 101: What is it and why should Real Estate and Land Use Professionals care?
Learn what embodied carbon is and the business case for reducing it!
Our codes and policies have addressed carbon emissions from building operations, but how do we address carbon emissions 'embodied' in building material and products?
In the building industry, embodied carbon refers to the greenhouse gas emissions arising from the manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance, and disposal of building materials. Leading developers are beginning to incorporate cost-effective considerations regarding embodied carbon during project design and setting standards across their development portfolios.
Join us for a conversation with our esteemed panel and hear about the business case for the importance of considering embodied carbon during development and construction, as well as learn how cities are creating policies to address embodied carbon and how real estate organizations have already started reducing carbon emissions.
