Did you know clients and regulators expect architects to show climate readiness? And we aren’t talking about being informed; we’re referring to understanding how to mitigate risk in the built environment.
The rise in extreme weather conditions such as floods, wildfires, hurricanes, and heat waves has caused significant damage to many landmarks, properties, and lives.
Areas that are more susceptible to these events may experience a rise in credit risk, ultimately impacting the economic recovery of communities and potentially leading to market failure.
How can you help?
By collaborating with experts and professionals who share an interest in climate action and the built environment.
To prepare for climate change, we need sustainable building practices and skills for adaptation. We must also evaluate technology, policies, and regulations to transition to a low-carbon economy.
And we have just the place for you to do this…
