The Ontario Association of Architects has launched a new Climate Action Case Studies series to complement the sustainability theme in its five-year strategic plan.

The OAA recognizes that the built environment plays a significant role in greenhouse gas emissions and that architects can help make significant progress toward achieving reduction targets. Intended for both the public and the profession, the collected case studies aims to demonstrate how thoughtful approaches can mitigate new and existing buildings’ impacts.

The assortment of case studies presented on OAA’s website will represent contributions from members, serving as tangible examples of how the architectural field can actively contribute to improved climate action and construct superior outcomes.

Those who possess exceptional climate-conscious performance or demonstrate how the architectural profession can contribute to better construction are encouraged to submit a case study for evaluation.
