Building the Future: Green Building in the New Millennium - A podcast by Sustainable Homes of the Future

Fact: Reducing Embodied Carbon in our buildings and building products is the number one way we can stop climate change in its tracks! First we need to know what it is and how it's been contributing to the rapid environmental degradation of our People & Planet. Then we can work together (quickly!) to turn things around. Did you know? The average residential solar panel takes a full year to offset the amount of carbon emitted during its production.   About Ian: As the Managing Director of Development at Sustainable Homes of the Future, Ian has had the opportunity to break new creative and technical ground and learn the necessary skills to manage each project with an integrative, design-centered approach.
