Embodied Carbon: Carbon Leadership Forum Alberta
As a local hub of the Carbon Leadership Forum (CLF), CLF Alberta co-ordinates local events that empower industry professionals to reduce embodied carbon from buildings and infrastructure. Embodied carbon refers to carbon associated with the manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance and disposal of materials used in building projects.
CLF Alberta is a volunteer-run Community of Practice, hosted by ENBIX. Subject matter experts in embodied carbon are welcome to apply by contacting us.
If you are interested in participating in upcoming events related to embodied carbon, see our events calendar to register.
