World Green Building Week: Building the Transition

Kick-off World Green Building Week with CAGBC! Join experts from the CAGBC community as they share their insights on this year’s theme #BuildingtheTransition, and what that looks like for Canada’s building sector.

Immerse yourself into understanding how systemic change accelerates building electrification while making them good grid-citizens; embracing zero carbon as the metric for buildings is possible with good transition planning; and building resiliency against extreme climate events helps mitigate damage and improve recoverability.

As Canada’s third-largest carbon emitter, the building sector can be a crucial change agent by creating new jobs, driving innovation, and helping the nation meet its global climate commitments. We and our panel look forward to seeing you online as we support building the transition.
