(Live webinar attendees only) \nAs the urgency to address climate change and halt greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) continues to grow\, designers have a responsibility to make smart design decisions to minimize their buildings”™ GHG emissions. Even net zero energy\, looking at operational energy over time\, is no longer enough. We need to be absolute zero carbon\, this means zero carbon in all aspects: operational\, embodied\, refrigerants\, construction\, infrastructure\, and landscape. We need to design buildings that are zero carbon every day\, from conception to operations. \nThis session will discuss the roadmap to achieving Absolute Carbon including radically passive\, all-electric design\, adaptive reuse that is as good as new construction\, 24/7 renewable energy\, carbon sequestering materials\, rehabilitating developed landscapes and serious attention to transportation. \nModerator: \nDavid Moore\, LEED AP BD+C\, Environmental Designer\, Atelier Ten\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nSpeaker: \nKristen DiStefano\, LEED AP BD+C – Director\, Atelier Ten\, San Francisco\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/roadmap-to-absolute-zero-carbon/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Climate-Action-Webinar-Roadmap-to-Absolute-Zero-Carbon-1200x800-2.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Sarah Vasquez":MAILTO:svasquez@aiacalifornia.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240612T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20240612T130000 DTSTAMP:20260424T101623 CREATED:20240516T052757Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240725T161445Z UID:10000261-1718193600-1718197200@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:CALGreen Embodied Carbon Series: Building Reuse for Decarbonization and Compliance DESCRIPTION:This session qualifies for 1 LU/HSW (pending approval) and 1 hr Zero Net Carbon Design Mandatory Continuing Education.

In this program we will illustrate how microgrids provide resilience against natural disasters and grid outages. Microgrids can also reduce carbon emissions while having a positive economic impact on an individual property or community.\nThe potential for natural disasters to threaten large areas of California is significant. This webinar will provide examples of resilient microgrid\, including an approximately one MW microgrid designed for riding through Public Safety Power Shutoff (PSPS) events\, a microgrid for a community disaster recovery center\, and microgrid systems with smart controls that provide resilience and eliminate the need for electrical service upgrades for electrification of existing single-family homes.\nQualifies for 1.5hrs of ZNCD MCE \n\n Additional Resources\n Additional Resources \nLearning Objectives + Redwood Energy_Microgrids URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/using-microgrids-for-resilience/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/2023-Climate-Action-Webinar-Microgrids-1200x800-3.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Sarah Vasquez":MAILTO:svasquez@aiacalifornia.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20230525T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20230525T130000 DTSTAMP:20260424T101623 CREATED:20230720T030317Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231221T043216Z UID:10000057-1685016000-1685019600@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:Biophilia in the Workplace DESCRIPTION:Speakers: \nSimon Turner | Founder\, Building Cognition LLC \nOrlane Panet | Co-founder\, Micro Habitat \nVicki Worden | President & CEO\, Green Building Initiative \nScience shows that people benefit from daylight\, views\, and natural ventilation. Today”™s technologies allow architects to incorporate biophilic design into building design as part of their net zero carbon design goals and project requirements. \nAs part of this presentation\, a set of case studies will be used to illustrate how architects can design indoor-outdoor elements into their projects\, in both new construction and adaptive reuse of existing buildings. These examples will show how integrating biophilic components can improve the quality of life for inhabitants\, increase connection to nature\, reduce operational energy demands and lower embodied carbon levels. \nhttps://youtu.be/n4LnhafX6yk \n\n Additional Resources\n Additional Resources \nFull Presentation_Biophilia in the Workplace URL:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/event/biophilia-in-the-workplace/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Climate Action ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.aiacalifornia.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/2023-Climate-Action-Webinar-Biophilia-in-the-Workplace-1200x800-1.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Sarah Vasquez":MAILTO:svasquez@aiacalifornia.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20221107T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20221107T133000 DTSTAMP:20260424T101623 CREATED:20221108T025213Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231026T044104Z UID:10000020-1667822400-1667827800@events.aiacalifornia.org SUMMARY:Climate Action Webinar - Smart Carbon Goals: Lessons Learned in the Construction of a Carbon Calculator DESCRIPTION:Smart Carbon Goals: Lessons Learned in the Construction of a Carbon Calculator\nWhen: Wednesday November 30th\, 12-1:30pm \nUnits: 1.5 LU/HSW (pending approval) \nQualifies for 1.5 hrs Zero Net Carbon Design Mandatory Continuing Education.

Barnwell\, HBDP\, LEED AP BD+C | Smart Buildings Leader | Principal DLR Group \nDescription: \nThis webinar attempts to understand how air quality conditions in our buildings often fail to reach their full potential due to siloed\, inaccurate or inaccessible streams of data. After nearly a decade of research and development\, global integrated design firm DLR Group has launched ”˜Sonrai IAQâ„¢”™ a new air quality analytics platform that integrates data streams across an array of smart internet of things (IoT) devices. Sonrai IAQ was created as a direct response to the industry need to organize\, contextualize\, and democratize building performance data. A representative from DLR Group will describe past roadblocks to real-time assessment of indoor air quality\, how ”˜smart”™ sensors have changed data collection possibilities\, and how analytics platforms have enhanced the ability to review trends\, patterns\, and anomalies in building performance data. They will also describe how access to these post occupancy data streams have enhanced an integrated Design Firms ability to deliver on AIA 2030 Commitments while elevating the human experience of the built environment. \nEarn 1 LSU | HSU for attending live. \n\nAdditional Resources\nAdditional Resources \nSonrai IAQ \nDemo Request \nSpeaker Presentation_Webinar_Sonrai IAQ (.pptx) \n(Watching video recordings of past webinars does not give the opportunity to receive any AIA LUs / CE credit.)
