This summit marks five years since the BSA held the Embodied Carbon in Buildings Conference which led to the development of the EC 101 Series and the creation of the CLF Boston / Northeast Hub. In the past five years, we have made great strides through advocacy, research, education, outreach, and implementation - nationally and regionally. There have been advances on many fronts including policy, concrete, biogenic materials, adaptive reuse and more case studies. The goal of this summit is to come together to learn from each other, provide resources to the broader AEC community, and to advance our collective efforts.

Day One will bring everyone together again for networking and knowledge-sharing through a series of three 90-minute panel discussions focused on topics around Policy and Advocacy, our Practice, and Pushing Forward. We will conclude with a celebratory reception where our partners BE+ and MassCEC will announce the winners of the Embodied Carbon Challenge.

Day Two will offer six focused 90-minute workshops on topics of Policy and Advocacy, Mass Timber design, Concrete & Steel, Reuse and Circularity, Bio-Based Materials, and LCA Case Studies to continue the conversations and harness collective engagement.

Detailed schedule, panelists, and presenters to be posted soon.
