U-M Climate Action Webinar Series: Campus Buildings and Emissions Reductions
The University of Michigan (U-M) has over 40 million square feet of building space across its three campuses, health system and athletics complex. U-M recognizes the importance of reducing the carbon intensity of its buildings, and, in accordance with its commitment to achieving university-wide carbon neutrality, is pursuing a number of strategies. These include:
- Reevaluating and revising building standards for major renovations and new construction to require greater energy efficiency.
- Prioritizing and funding energy conservation measures through a universitywide revolving energy fund.
Join U-M faculty experts Lars Junghans and Jen Maigret from the Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Kevin Morgan, Manager of U-M’s Energy Management Team, and Marina Roelofs, Executive Director for U-M Architecture, Engineering and Construction, for an engaging conversation around U-M buildings and their role in efforts to achieve carbon neutrality.
