Be a Zero Hero! Join the International Living Future Institute for the Zero Carbon Conference on October 7 and 8. Illinois Green Alliance and the Chicago Living Future Collaborative are pleased to be a marketing partners for this great event. Learn more about the conference and how to register below!
We are living in an unprecedented, critical moment to take intentional and equitable action on the climate crisis. With less than a decade to achieve sustainable development goals, collaboration is imperative to scaling our impact. We can jump-start this impact with a focus on four areas:
Embodied Carbon
Operational Carbon
Zero for All
Financing the Future of Zero Carbon Communities
The Zero Carbon Conference will respond to this need and forge a collaboration of our community of architects, designers, engineers, contractors, and responsible manufacturers–along with ESG investors and developers who are taking active steps to accelerate the decarbonization of the built environment.
Through keynotes, plenaries, panel sessions and 1:1 networking opportunities, practitioners and funders will come together to advance these initiatives around operational + embodied carbon reduction, cost-benefit analysis, and community resources to achieve an equitable decarbonized future. The Zero Carbon Conference will deliver the technology, the materials, the know-how, and the financing models needed to pave the way for scalable decarbonized global communities.
