Bending the Curve: 10 Scalable Climate Solutions

"In about 10 years, the warming will most likely exceed the threshold for dangerous warming. Since weather extremes are linked with warming, the current climate disruption we are experiencing will get worse, by as much as 50%. Fortunately, there is still time to avoid catastrophic outcomes and I will list actions we can all take for the common good."

MISSION 

Buildings and neighborhoods are platforms to protect and enhance our environment, achieve economic prosperity, and ensure equity, health and well-being for all. The focus of the San Diego Green Building Conference and Expo is to showcase how a built environment can contribute to a more sustainable world. Our mission has always been to inspire, educate and collaborate within our community, and we know San Diego is actively contributing to creating a more resilient and sustainable world.

The effects of climate change are reaching us here and now; wildfires, eroding coastlines, erratic weather patterns and rising CO2 levels, we recognize that our built environment has a large footprint, impacting not only the surrounding environments and communities but the occupants within. We see an opportunity to bring our community together to inspire real action and ensure positive impact for generations to come.
