Low emission living

One of the greatest challenges of our time is the climate

change. It is caused by an increasing amount of climate gasses

in the atmosphere. Seeing that the building sector represents

40 % of the emissions, the architects have to take their part of

the responsibility.

A lot of emissions are related to building and operating a build-

ing. Architects also influence how people live. In the western

world we live in a throw away society. We buy new in stead of

repairing something old. Can a more sustainable lifestyle be

encouraged?
