Bright Ideas in Lighting\n				Lighting\, both natural and manufactured\, is essential to human health and wellness. The roundtable speakers will share their work in the field\, with a discussion of the whole life cycle impacts of lighting\, as well as the idea of “perception……” Please join us to learn\, and to share your ideas and experiences in the realm of light \nFeaturing Lighting Leaders: \nAlexandra Gadawski AIA\, LEED AP BD+C\, WELL AP – Architect / Sustainability leader at HMFH Architects \nKeith Yancey IALD\, AIA\, LC\, P.E. – Principal at Lam Partners \nMelissa Mattes LC\, LFA\, – Senior Lighting Designer at Sladen Feinstein Integrated Lighting Inc. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				November - Big Wins and Challenges in Building Rating Certifications\n				More info to come – Presentations of built projects by local leaders discussing the successes and challenges when using various rating systems to drive health and wellness in the finished design. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				September - Member Input & Planning Meeting\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				August - Materials Universe\n				The products we use to construct our buildings and create engaging interior spaces are expected to do more than serve a function or aesthetic. Today’s materials are being asked to have healthier ingredients\, lower embodied carbon and promote circularity\, and\, if they’re really well conceived\, address inequities and injustice throughout their supply chains.\n \nBuilding and product certifications\, as well as commitments like the 2030 Challenge or AIA Material’s Pledge provide us with frameworks for setting materials goals. 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?

This space is for the community to have dedicated time to connect and work together on Carbon & Energy related issues and opportunities in the built environment. \nBE+ members and IBPSA Boston members can sign up for the session for free.  People new to BE+’s roundtables without membership can also attend for free. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				August - Let's Prep for DOER Input\n				Interested in sharing your thoughts on the Massachusetts Stretch Energy Code? The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) has just a year left to develop and promulgate the next MA stretch energy code.  They are required to hold at least five public hearings throughout the state during the process yet have not released a schedule as of now.  While we wait for the hearings to begin we want to proactively gather the Building Community to discuss priorities and recommendations. \nThis will be the first of monthly roundtables on Carbon and Energy. This month’s session will take place this Thursday\, August 19\, from 9-10am\, and will focus on gathering input from Massachusetts building industry practitioners on the direction of the state’s Stretch Energy Code. We want to hear both your fears and hopes for the code. \nBE+ invited IBPSA members\, a community of energy modeling professionals in the Boston area\, to attend and form a dedicated “breakout room” focused on the role of energy modeling in the Stretch Energy Code. Now is your chance to share testimonies on energy modeling requirements in the current code\, and provide input on potential new directions for the code in the future. \nDepending on attendance\, we’ll have additional breakouts to gather thoughts on efficiency\, electrification\, renewables\, and other. \nThe result of the breakout room discussions will be a letter drafted to the Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) on behalf of Built Environment Plus and IBPSA Boston\, summarizing the discussion. \nBE+ members and IBPSA Boston members can sign up for Thursday’s session for free.  People new to BE+’s roundtables without membership can also attend for free. \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?
