Discover how to reduce your project's carbon footprint by understanding and addressing embodied carbon. This session will delve into Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), revealing the carbon footprint associated with building materials. Practical steps that contractors can take to minimize embodied carbon will be explored, from early-stage planning through construction practices. Sustainability certifications with credits that calculate embodied carbon, such as LEED and Envision, will be evaluated to help maximize sustainability impacts. This webinar ultimately aims to help build the knowledge and tools needed to make informed decisions that contribute to a more sustainable future.
