About this deck
Buildings are responsible for roughly 37% of global energy-related greenhouse-gas emissions — about 27% from operating energy and 10% from embodied carbon in construction materials. The decarbonisation of architecture is not a sub-discipline; it is the central design problem of the next forty years. Key sections include: Sustain able.; Opening The mandate.; Chapter I The numbers.; Chapter II Passive design.; Chapter III Passivhaus.; Chapter IV LEED and BREEAM.; Chapter V Embodied carbon.; Chapter VI Mass timber.; Chapter VII Low-carbon concrete.; Chapter VIII Biophilic design..
