Summary:
L’évolution du fonctionnement de notre système social et économique vers la production d’énergie décarbonée constitue aujourd’hui un enjeu d’ampleur planétaire. Ce dernier concerne autant les populations urbaines que rurales, imposant ainsi une réflexion globale sur les relations qu’entretiennent nos établissements humains avec les ressources renouvelables du territoire. Cet ouvrage explore les modalités de transition vers un modèle énergétique, dans lequel la recomposition des rapports entre ressources et territoires laisse entrevoir un rôle inédit pour les espaces ruraux, lieux de nouvelles alliances humaines et économiques.

Summary:
In this volume, carbon pioneers Bruce King and Chris Magwood re-envision buildings as one of our most practical and affordable climate solutions instead of leading drivers of climate change. They provide a snapshot of a beginning and map towards a carbon-smart built environment that acts as a CO2 filter. Professional engineers, designers, and developers are invited to imagine the very real potential for our built environment to be a site of net carbon storage, a massive drawdown pool that could help to heal our climate.This book looks at the good and the bad of how we track carbon (Life Cycle Assessment), then takes a deep dive into materials (with a focus on steel and concrete) and biological architecture, and wraps up with education, policy and governance, circular economy, and where we go in the next three decades.
