Carbon Stories: Transition! From theory to practice

GROUP A

A truly sustainable construction practice. How do we get there? What are the challenges? How to accelerate? Keynote by Prof. Jan Rotmans.

Keilestraat 9f

This 12th Carbon Stories edition wraps up the second year of the debate series. This milestone takes place in the setting of the exhibition ‘<a href="https://groupa.nl/news/ontwerpbureaus-keilecollectief-slaan-handen-ineen-voor-een-krachtige-tentoonstelling-over-de-toekomst-van-bouwen/" title="https://groupa.nl/news/ontwerpbureaus-keilecollectief-slaan-handen-ineen-voor-een-krachtige-tentoonstelling-over-de-toekomst-van-bouwen/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">HOW DO WE WANT TO BUILD M4H 2030</a>’ spanning 200 years of building practice, from 1900 to 2100. Carbon Stories brings this intergenerational approach to the stage with an inspiring cast to discuss past, present and future. What are challenges and possibilities in transitioning to a truly sustainable construction sector? What factors make acceleration of this transition possible? How do we apply the theory into our practice on a meaningful scale? SPEAKERS Jan Rotmans is a socially engaged scientist, with more than 200 publications in the field of climate change &amp; global change modelling, sustainable development, and transitions and system innovations. As Captain of Transition he will give a keynote lecture on transition, the scale and magnitude of the change of era. How does this affect the built environment? In what conditions do transitions thrive? Where do we stand now, in the second part of 2024? Margot Holländer is an engineer and co-founder of the architecture firm MOR Studio. From graduating from TU Delft, she went straight to work on sustainable design in practice. MOR Studio was founded to change building practice: by putting positive impact first and by focusing on transforming vacant buildings rather than building new ones. Sacha Brons is a food forest farmer, carbon expert and transition fanatic. Sacha walks the walk as a farmer, but also loves to talk the talk, specifically about nature-based solutions, transition finance and carbon removal. Sacha aims to radically change the financial system to adequately reward and incentivise carbon removal from the atmosphere into soils, biobased products and ecosystems. He does this as Head of Construction Stored Carbon at Climate Cleanup Foundation and as Carbon Removal Expert at Building Balance. But most of all, Sacha loves to work on his 13.5 ha food forest in Elst called ‘Voedselbos De Laar’, where the first trees will be planted in November 2024. Sam van Hooff is a sustainability optimist, with the goal of changing the construction sector towards more sustainable building practices. He is focussed on translating the (sometimes complex) sustainability principles towards simple actions that are applicable by anyone.The debate will be moderated by Geert Maarse.
