Climate change presents a formidable challenge and, as architects, we have a unique opportunity to address this pressing issue. Mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions associated with construction of our built environment is essential - but a critical question remains: how can this be achieved? This session will explore various aspects of what can be done, citing knowledge transfer, development of skills, tools and working frameworks, and the ethos of firms that are advancing more effective climate action every day.
Alan Lai, from Allied Environmental Consultants, Hong Kong, will discuss the importance of airflow and natural ventilation in sustainable environments. This will include case studies on the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in urban contexts, with a focus on microclimate studies and air ventilation assessments - especially in relation to wind-influenced design.
From Taipei, Jason Ouyang of JJP Architects and Planners, will explain how his firm is currently designing projects based on environmental considerations and how they delineate sustainability standards in Taiwan. This will address the identification of suitable solutions, and illustrate a framework that allows an architectural firm to go beyond mere regulatory compliance through cross-disciplinary collaborations.
Finally, Jiexin Li from Architecture 2030, Shanghai, will speak on the systemic transformation within our industry, particularly in Greater China and Asia, guiding us towards the shared objective of achieving net zero carbon emissions in the building sector.
