To meet the Paris Climate Agreement goals and stand a chance of keeping global mean temperature rise to 2?C above preindustrial levels, carbon emissions must decline to zero by 2050. Buildings are responsible for roughly 40% of all carbon emissions, and 90% of all the buildings that will exist in 2050 have already been built. Thus, we need to rapidly develop planning techniques and technologies to retrofit existing buildings so that they can become net-zero carbon emitters.

Before construction begins on an offshore wind farm, there is a rigorous process of assessing ecological and environmental impacts, obtaining any Federal and State permits, and engaging with stakeholders. This process is expensive, and vital to the successful installation of an offshore wind farm. A thorough understanding of these procedures is essential to all professionals in the offshore wind industry.

The course serves as a dynamic sampling of the multiple disciplines necessary to create or modify the Built Environment. Discussions based on lectures presented by various educators, researchers, and practitioners; experts in their fields will provide students with a broadened perspective, which will help foster critical thinking and provide a more expansive view of the Built Environment.
