About this Event
Hey El Paso!
A special thanks to FMG El Paso & WiA (Women in Architecture) for co-hosting our event.
Join Us for an AIA & IDCEC CEU Presentation by Material Bank
Applying the Common Materials Framework for more intentional product choices.
With hundreds of green product certifications on the market and persistent
greenwashing, it can be difficult for designers to know what kind of impacts
the materials they select for a project are having on the health of our climate,
ecosystems, communities, and individuals. But with the introduction of an
industry-aligned framework for evaluating sustainable materials, more
Informed decision-making is finally within reach. This course will present the
current challenges to measuring holistic product impacts and present the
Common Materials Framework: an emerging common language for product
sustainability - and how to apply it in your practice today.
Don’t miss this chance to deepen your understanding and connect with peers who are shaping a more sustainable built environment!
