Sustainable Building Week networking is too much fun to keep it once a year. We’ll supply the drinks, light snacks, and a few topics of discussion.

Curious how built environment policy gets developed in the Pacific Northwest region?

The Pacific Coast Collaborative is an association of Pacific Coast cities, states, and provinces joined together to mitigate climate change through innovative policies and planning across several initiatives. At the COP26 meeting in Glasgow in late 2021, PCC leaders announced the launch of the Low-Carbon Construction Task Force, a regional initiative to advance low-carbon materials and methods in building and construction projects. This initiative has been working to develop a shared regional strategy to accelerate innovation, investment, and market development for low-carbon materials by leveraging the scale of the Pacific Coast regional economy. Join us for an overview of the initiative, our recently completed action plan, what steps you can expect to see partner jurisdictions take regionally in the coming years, and to discuss opportunities to engage.
