Many governments and municipalities are introducing regulations   and incentives to minimize carbon emissions. Achieving net zero carbon in our   projects can help ensure compliance with these regulations and avoid   potential penalties.
LPA Irvine LPA’s multi-disciplinary design   practice is rooted in our commitment to sustainability and building   performance for every project, regardless of size, scale or budget. We   believe that the only way to significantly accomplish this is to take a   holistic, collaborative approach to design, involving all disciplines at the   earliest stages of the design process. We have committed to other industry   programs including Architecture 2030, SE2050 and the AIA Materials   Pledge.  LPA is committing to planning,   tracking and disclosing appropriate performance metrics for our projects.

Positive Energy Austin We have long been   electrification evangelists and regularly find ourselves on the front lines   of the electrification conversations that turn the supertanker. We push hard   for our projects to not use fossil fuels and have even recused ourselves from   projects that refuse to see past the status quo. The stunned expressions from   our clients speaks to their surprise that we care about our values so much as   to do that. The process where the clients/owners/developers call the shots   needs to end. They often have the least expertise and perspective. In the   same way that we promote passive house quality enclosures without offering a   choice, we specify heat pumps for space and water heating as standard and   don't give fossil fuel options.

Ennead Architects New York We believe that our greatest   design challenges are best overcome by fully integrated project teams.   Because every design decision has consequence and is increasingly measurable,   we encourage the design profession to learn, as quickly as possible, how to design   unwanted greenhouse gas emissions out of our work. From site work to   interiors and all major building systems in between, new frameworks and tools   have emerged to help all designers make better decisions and to drive   necessary change.
Commtech Commissioning Services Las Rozas de Madrid We need to support from   different direction initiatives to support building decarbonization going   forward. As Commissioning Provider we can play a decisive role in verifying   NZC/NZE designs, constructions and operations that meet the Owner Project   Requirements, satisfying confort, health and safety demands from   users/occupants. Existing Building Commissioning is also an excellent   methodology to address existing building decarbonization.
Cove Tool Atlanta We’re committed to the rapid   decarbonization of the built environment and we’re working to integrate low   carbon design strategies into a comprehensive data structure to enable all   members of the AEC to work together in a shared digital workspace.
ZGF Architects Portland ZGF Architects is committed to   carbon neutral architecture, including operational and embodied   emissions.  The MEP 2040 Commitment is aligned with these goals,   and we encourage our engineering partners to join us in this important   endeavor.
