Research continues to evolve to support\, or even challenge\, the use of certain materials. It’s a lot to stay on top of given that product selection is likely only one facet of our work.\n \nJack Dinning of Brightworks Sustainability\, and a materials consultant to Harvard’s Office of Sustainability\, has been regularly mapping the building products ecosystem\, and is looking to engage practitioners at all levels of experience to share information and strategies for pursuing optimized materials goals.\n \nNote: Attendees will get access to a Miro board prior to the session that will be the focus of the collaborative discussion and once complete\, can serve as a resource for accelerating the work of optimized materials.\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Thank You to our Health & Wellness sponsor Superior Essex!\n \n \n \n \n \n *Roundtables are FREE for Built Environment Plus Members. \n**New to the Roundtables?

In 2015\, existing residential and commercial buildings generated 1\,913.3 MMtCO2e\, or 29 percent of total U.S. emissions. To help address this sector\, Built Environment Plus (BE+) with Rethinking Power Management LLC (RPM) are spearheading a coalition of organizations with expertise in GHG reduction and who are committed to supporting decarbonization in existing buildings. \nThis reoccurring monthly gathering is a roundtable which serves as a platform where practitioners and reporting entities can come together to discuss best practices\, technologies\, challenges\, hear information related to the ordinance and its implementation\, etc. \nThe Alliance’s objectives include: \n– Increase awareness of energy disclosure ordinances including BERDO and BEUDO and enhance understanding of requirements. \n– Provide information and resources to reporting organizations that answer “how do we comply” questions through general and building-sector specific webinars. \n– Engage disadvantaged/underserved communities. \n– Share best practices and lessons learned. \n– Provide resources to building owners to help understand decarbonization pathways and create carbon reduction roadmaps. \n– Work with non-profit partners to provide information about/introductions to established practitioners. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n *Roundtables are FREE for Built Environment Plus Members. \n**New to the Roundtables?

We will talk about how women can be empowered to lead\, how we can get involved in opportunities beyond our own companies\, and about the challenges in doing so. \nSubject Matter ExpertsAndrea Love\, AIA\, LEED Fellow | Principal\, Director of Building Science | Payette \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n *Roundtables are FREE for Built Environment Plus Members. \n**New to the Roundtables?
