Beyond the Building: Increasing resilience and reducing emissions in the exterior built environment
Oct 5, 2023 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM

Qualification Credentials: RCEP PDH

Beyond buildings: streets, infrastructure, open spaces and natural systems represent more than 50% of a city’s space. Yet they are often overlooked and considered “in-between” spaces. These places hold vast opportunities for climate and community resilience, emissions reductions, and active biogenic carbon sequestration. Planning and urban design, infrastructure, and landscape architecture hold critical levers improving the mitigation performance of these spaces while unlocking critical co-benefits such as protecting from an increase of flood, heat and air pollution while conserving water and supporting biodiversity, community health, and well-being. 


Moderated by Vincent Martinez, Architecture 2030 President and COO, “Beyond the Building” opens the dialog to learn about the resources for cross-sector collaboration to amplify positive impacts globally. Within the industry, Pamela Conrad, Founder of Climate Positive Design and Chris Hardy, Senior Associate from Sasaki will demonstrate the usage of design strategies and tools that measure and analyze data that can be embodied by infrastructure disciplines.

Qualification Credentials: RCEP PDH

The Indianapolis International Airport (IND) earned an Envision Platinum award for their Runway 5R-23L & Taxiway D Strengthening and Capacity Enhancement Project. Envision Platinum is the highest award level provided by the Institute for Sustainable Infrastructure (ISI) for projects that significantly contribute to sustainability and resiliency. This is the first airfield project in the world to receive the prestigious Envision Platinum recognition.

 

Owned, developed, and operated by the Indianapolis Airport Authority (IAA), IND is a medium hub primary commercial service facility located on approximately 7,700 acres seven miles southwest of downtown Indianapolis in Marion County, Indiana.

 

This webinar will showcase the Project’s contributions to the local economy and workforce development, engagement with partners to specifically guide those contributions, use of a life-cycle economic analysis to support decision-making, renewable energy measures, and novel uses of technology to reduce carbon emissions.
