COP27 Special Webinar: Healthy Buildings in an Era of Decarbonization
From November 6-18, world leaders and climate negotiators will convene in Sharm El-Sheikh for the 2022 UN Climate Change Conference (COP27).
The climate crisis touches us all – from an increase in the frequency of major storms and natural disasters, to rising sea levels and air pollution, to the changes communities must make to prepare for these events. Through conscious design and construction practices, buildings can act as a first line of defense and a mitigating factor against carbon emissions.
In a special webinar during COP27, BuildingAction and the International WELL Building Institute will bring together leaders working at the intersection of built infrastructure, climate change and public health to discuss how policymakers and the building sector can prepare buildings to meet the health and climate challenges we face.
U.S. Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA), the author of the Airborne Act, which provides incentives for indoor air quality assessments and improvements, will share his take on the prospects for action in Congress on healthy buildings.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear how the building sector and policymakers can transform buildings for a healthier and more sustainable future!
