How Can Massachusetts Become a Leader in Reducing Embodied Carbon Emissions in Buildings? Join the Discussion on April 25

Posted on April 10, 2023 by Massachusetts Climate Action Network

Tuesday, April 25 at 6pm. Online.

Embodied carbon is the greenhouse gas emissions arising from the manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance, and disposal of building materials. Embodied carbon accounts for 11-25% of our global annual emissions. In order for us to transform our buildings from climate polluters to protectors, we must address embodied carbon as well as operational carbon.
