Hi All,

It's been a great week to get the message out about the importance of sustainability in our work, and this group brings such a rich and nuanced perspective to the table. I'm asking, if you published something for earth day this week for external consumption, could you share that here? I'm curious to see if there are common themes and genuinely interested in how we're expressing ourselves out there. Thanks for sharing!

Here's a quick video we put together: https://vimeo.com/540178015

Hi all We focused on three projects for earth day:

Our sustainability annual report went live on earth day.

https://www.callisonrtkl.com/news/shaping-a-better-world-annual-sustainability-report-2021/

Climate Scout, the first version of our climate analysis app. It provides climate-specific design advice at the building scale by pairing the Köppen-Geiger climate classification and building scale design strategies from Architecture 2030’s Palette. The user selects and combines appropriate strategies for a selected climate and which appear in real-time, overlaid in diagrammatic form. It links to the 2030 Palette for more information and examples.

https://www.callisonrtkl.com/climate-scout-intro/ This is our first version so happy to hear comments and suggestions.

Climate Action Challenge. The link went live (internally) on earth day to get ideas from our staff to implement and reduce our operation's carbon footprint. Reduce first, then offset….

Thanks! Pablo
