Attorney Mederson to present for the National Institute of Building Sciences
Attorney Jessica Mederson and co-presenter, Construction Resilience Engineer Mónika Serrano, will present “Balancing Sustainability and Resiliency in the Built Environment” to an audience at the National Institute of Building Sciences Building Innovation Conference 2024 on Thursday, May 23.
Designers, architects, engineers, developers, and others in the real estate sector face many challenges as they plan the next retrofit or new development: What to tackle first – carbon reduction, energy efficiency, hazard mitigation, health and safety? Can we address everything at the same time? Does every building follow the same formula? How do we figure out what brings the most value to a building, its occupants, and the surrounding community? This discussion will highlight the tensions and potential synergies between sustainability and resilience in the built environment. It will also address managing risks related to climate change and analyzing the cost of inaction, as well as the value of incorporating both sustainable practices and future climate into building planning.
