Buildings are both a major contributor to climate change and highly vulnerable to its impacts. This seminar explores the relationship between buildings and climate change, focusing on energy use, material demand, carbon emissions, and climate-related risks. The talk will discuss how the building sector can contribute to mitigation and adaptation, and highlight pathways towards more sustainable, resilient, and low-carbon-built environments.
