"buildings are not just shelter, they're key to mitigating, adapting to climate change and connecting to people in your community."
Connection meets architecture! Amazing talk.
Such a powerful speech
i know nature itself adapts to any conditions of change... whether it impacts them negatively like extinction but evolution is the key. Now with us we need to adapt as nature can. I think they can save themselves, but its our doings where I feel we are altering their chances. So we have to change our world...the human world.. to change the natural world because they will adapt :) so i agree. building are the key..a building or architecture can show a sign of a possible world we can create for the better. like environmental architecture is so interesting and biomimicry.
How do you account for cost while switching from Concrete to Timber.
Not feasible if it is not forced and unlimited fund is provided. Please provide cost analysis of your Proposal, I bet it would be more than 40% of currently minimum
