    About this webinar

    The built environment consumes roughly 50% of the world’s extracted materials and emits nearly 40% greenhouse gas emissions annually. Unfortunately, continual increases in the rate of global resource consumption push beyond the limits of natural regeneration, marked by a threshold that is commonly referred to as “Earth Overshoot Day.” Measuring and limiting the embodied energy of building materials allows the construction industry to consciously reduce its large impact, maintaining a healthy living environment for current and future generations. This seminar will explain how and why architects and designers must quantify and reduce their designs’ embodied energy.

    Hosted by Taleen Josefsson

    Taleen is a Brooklyn-based architect and Passive House Consultant based in Brooklyn who applies a holistic approach to tackling the complex environmental and social issues relating to the built environment. She is devoted to promoting healthy, low-energy architectural solutions that strengthen local communities, economies, and biodiversity. Taleen's work includes research and analysis on building material reuse as a method for reducing our industry’s negative environmental impact, with a proposed circular working method of “Form Follows Availability." She is also an active volunteer in the Architects Climate Action Network and enjoys sharing the latest in sustainability and architectural research via her Instagram: @the_holistic_architect.

    Upon completion, you'll be able to:

    1. Recognize the need for built environment embodied carbon limits
    2. Identify resource-saving strategies increasing overall sustainability.
    3. Compare materials’ embodied carbon for better options.
    4. Select low embodied carbon materials for healthier buildings, spaces, and environment.
