Webinar: Exploring Buildings’ Embodied Emissions

Learn more about the importance of Life Cycle Assessment and the embodied emissions of buildings. We will be joined by Jeremy Caradonna from the Province of BC’s Office of Mass Timber Implementation and Patrick Enright, Senior Green Building Engineer at the City of Vancouver. They will discuss the significance of embodied emissions in our buildings, how they are measured and innovative policy responses that any local government can implement.
