Description

We knew 50 years ago that humans needed to curb pollution in order to save our planet. Today's discussion is about tools, programs, and an all-electric approach to reducing "embodied" carbon in construction...the only real way to stop the climate crisis. 
Also, find out how efficiency in building design could save us the equivalent of 13 million cars driving on the road for a year and why methane doesn't just come from cows!!!
