Designing Sustainable Solutions for a Better Built Environment

With mounting evidence of the impact of human activity on the global climate, the built environment is increasingly understood as a critical site for applied and conceptual research in questions of energy and ecology. As the urgency to mitigate and adapt to climate change intensifies—and as new pathways for research and investigation become essential—Harvard’s Center for Green Buildings and Cities and the Harvard Graduate School of Design are pleased to present, “Designing Sustainable Solutions for a Better Built Environment.” The event will take place on Thursday, April 2 from 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM in Piper Auditorium, Gund Hall and virtually. This event is open to Harvard affiliates only.

This event features a keynote address by Harvard’s Vice Provost for Climate and Sustainability, James Stock, followed by short presentations by CGBC affiliated faculty from the GSD. A five-minute Q&A session will follow each presentation.
