Decon + Reuse ‘24 will focus conversations on the theme Salvaging the Past, Building a Low Carbon Future. With the building materials and construction sector contributing 11% of global greenhouse (GHG) emissions, how can deconstruction and building materials reuse lead to a low carbon future? How do we best salvage not only the building materials from our past, but the stories, our sense of place, our community connections that are embodied within them? How does the past help us to build a low carbon future?
These are just some of the questions that face government, nonprofits, business leaders, designers, researchers, students and communities as they consider the carbon emissions released during building materials extraction, manufacturing, transport, construction and disposal. Conference programming will focus on addressing these intersectional dimensions through engaging, expert-lead presentations and panels, plus our signature Solution Sessions, where small groups generate action-oriented ideas on topics of importance.
