1. Learn what are the drivers for reducing Embodied and Operational carbon in buildings and how do we measure carbon in building materials.
2. Using GPS insulation as a base case, explain how do sustainable raw materials e.g., recycled, renewable and biomass, contribute to reducing embodied carbon.
3. Define what is the corollary between the density of rigid foam insulation and embodied carbon e.g., less material equals less carbon.
4. Explain what are the available tools e.g., calculators and design software, that compare embodied and operational carbon of similar building materials.

MaryEnjoyed the topic and in particular, the speaker. He was truly entertaining and I could tell by the exuberance he showed, he had the "heart of a great teacher!" Keep up the good work!
HowardGeneral info regarding EPD's and embodied carbon and how biomass production can be used to lower the embodied carbon content of a material.
Catherineenergetic presentation but a little hard to follow
GeorgeVery informative and I appreciate the details, although dense, in order to set up the complexity of the issues correctly.
RaoulVery informative and I appreciate the details, although dense, in order to set up the complexity of the issues correctly.

This course examines the value of using graphite polystyrene from a lifecycle perspective as a carbon reduction strategy. Participants will learn about how the integration of biomass and recycled content contributes to reducing the carbon footprint of GPS in the manufacturing phase and how GPS’s carbon payback period compares to other rigid foam insulation. Using GPS as the base case, this course will also explain how lifecycle analysis and environmental product declarations (EPDs) are developed and used to measure embodied carbon and compare and select products and systems.
Crédits: 1 AIA HSW + 1 GBCI (USGBC/CAGBC) + 1 AIBD Primary + 1 Sustainable Design + 1 AIBC Core LU + 1 AAA Structured LU + 1 OAA, OAQ, SAA, MAA, AAPEI, NWTAA + 1 Climate Action (OAA)
