The Aldo Leopold Legacy Center, Baraboo, Wisconsin:
the first Carbon Neutral Building in the United States, in addition to being awarded LEED® Platinum This documentary was filmed during the Carbon Neutral Design Project Summit that was held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in the Fall of 2008.
The Carbon Neutral Curriculum Materials Project is a joint research effort between members of the Society of Building Science Educators (www.sbse.org), the American Institute of Architects (www.aia.org), and a private donor, the purpose of which is to provide practitioners, faculty and students with the means to meet the 2030 Challenge (www.architecture2030.org)- that is, to be able to design and construct buildings to a state of carbon neutrality by the year 2030. The work included in this web resource is the result of a committed effort from educators and practitioners and is an attempt to begin to define a working methodology for Carbon Neutral Design that will be of general benefit to the profession. IT IS A WORK IN PROGRESS, A BEGINNING. There are pieces of the site that are incomplete at present. These will be filled in over the next few months. The Carbon Neutral Design Metrics are evolving. A CND Spreadsheet Tool is forthcoming. Please check back periodically for more content.
Please use the links at the left to find out more about designing buildings to a state of carbon neutrality.
IMPORTANT: THIS SITE IS A WORK IN PROGRESS - COMPLETION SCHEDULED FOR SUMMER 2009
