Sustainability and Environment Director @PROSOCO. Developing healthy specialty construction chemicals for #GreenBuilding. Making #Sustainable buildings last.
Ed Mazria lays out what I call his “triage” approach: if you’re overwhelmed by all of the options, just target top emitters of carbon & you can get 85%
For buildings: that’s the concrete, steel and aluminum first. That’s half right there. #carbonpositive20
Thanks to @USGBC_CP and @JEDunn for hosting @m_raman and regional LEED practitioners. Great to hear success stories and a vision for LEEDv4.1 and beyond.

Here's a safe prediction: Bold US climate action, if we get it, will not happen in an orderly, linear, incremental way driven & steered by policy from the Federal government.
It will be disruptive, nonlinear, accelerative, multi-polar & likely enduringly, bitterly conflictual.
A few of our favorite lessons from @billmckibben at #LF19:
@Living_Future
1. ���Human societies are comfortable with gradual change, but we don’t have time for that.”
“We best not waste this moment because we won’t get many more moments with which to do anything” - @billmckibben on climate change during his #lf19 keynote.
