Space utilization action plans for achieving carbon footprint targets

In this session you’ll see proven solutions for reducing your campus carbon footprint without compromising education or research outcomes. Session leaders tap into a deep database of estimating and programming models and identify winning strategies for near- and long-term management of carbon impacts, including evaluations of the embodied energy components of multiple academic building types across North America. They analyze the effects of changing curricula, enrollment, and research team compositions on space allocation and utilization decisions, and provide a roadmap for a more comprehensive carbon footprint reduction approach.
