Part of the Biodiversity & Climate Action 101 for Landscape Architects Series. Registration is free for ASLA members and registrants also receive access to the recordings.

Every landscape architecture project has a carbon footprint—from material sourcing to construction, use, and disposal. As landscape architects, designers, and industry leaders, we must bring a new mindset to our work and prioritize climate-conscious decisions. This webinar introduces a streamlined, action-oriented framework for cutting emissions and increasing carbon sequestration through a CliffsNotes guide to best practices.

Attendees will explore key considerations, real-world applications, and essential resources to integrate carbon budgeting into their design process. The session will also include recommendations for material specification using the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) 2014 framework, highlighting ways to reduce impacts from project materials’ embodied carbon, transportation, and installation.

Presenters:
  • Bryce Carnehl, Corporate ASLA, Specification Support Manager, Hunter Industries
  • Christopher R. Hardy, ASLA, PLA, Senior Associate, Sasaki
  • Alejandra Hinojosa, Affil. ASLA, Sustainability Specialist III, LPA Design Studios
