Description
Join a panel discussion on science-based CO2 targets for the building industry that follow the Paris Agreement and the planetary boundaries. Learn about the Reduction Roadmap, its adoption in Denmark, and the need for international scaling.
The Reduction Roadmap empowers investors, developers, consultants, contractors, and authorities across the industry to set specific emission targets for buildings. As such it is a benchmark showing whether a project is supporting or breaching the Paris Agreement.
The roadmap has been widely adopted as a scientific baseline for the Danish building industry. Now, the time has come to scale the initiative at the European and global level to create a climate-centred movement.
Swing by Living Places Copenhagen on July 5 for a drink to hear about the journey of the Reduction Roadmap by its initiators and join the panel discussion between European and Danish climate leaders moderated by Pernille Berg.
The talk is an official UIA Side Event. Participation is free and the event is open to everybody.
After the discussion, you can get a tour around Living Places Copenhagen.
Living Places is a newly built housing demonstration project documenting how to reduce lifetime carbon emissions by two thirds and showcasing what is already possible today.

ABOUT THE REDUCTION ROADMAP
The Reduction Roadmap sets CO2 targets for the Danish housing sector and scales activity within planetary boundaries for climate change and aligns with Danish national commitments to the UN Paris Agreement. The roadmap is initiated by architectural offices CEBRA and EFFEKT and consulting engineers Artelia. Learn more here.
ABOUT LIVING PLACES COPENHAGEN
Visit the five open pavilions and access the two finished homes in full-scale, open to guests between 17.00-19.30.
Living Places Copenhagen represents the first set of prototypes of the Living Places concept, built by VELUX in partnership with EFFEKT, Artelia, and Enemærke & Petersen. It demonstrates that we do not have to wait for future technology to build homes that are healthy for people and the planet. The project is built with a CO2 footprint of 3.8 kg CO2 per square metre per year – three times lower than the current Danish legislation of 12 kg - while also prioritising daylight, indoor climate, and a price matching the market.
