It's no facade: Special panel discussion on the climate crisis

We’re in trouble! We’re cooking the planet! We know that buildings are a big part of the problem, and there has been a long running industry focus on improving building performance. So how are we doing? What’s working and what’s not? What more can we do with the façade system? These questions and more will be explored in this special panel session.

Join Ajla and Mic as they explore these questions along with very special guest Peter Nelson with SLCgreen, who will discuss how Salt Lake City is thinking about and addressing these important issues.
