AIA California’s Climate Action Committee aims to improve the sustainability of the built environment by promoting conservation of natural resources, design which brings buildings closer to net-zero usage, and public policy that supports these efforts. It has developed a rich compendium of resources, including the What You Can Do Right Now series. A recent installment, written by Seth Dunn, AIA and Chris Fano, AIA, of Siegel & Strain Architects, is on Regenerative Design, which “aims to use human intervention to not just stop environmental degradation, but also to restore the relationships between natural, social, and man-made systems, and identify the unique value-adding role that each contributes to the larger whole.” Read and learn here.
