Architecture of the future
A quick fact-checking exercise that sheds a whole new light on architectural design: The construction, use and demolition of buildings is the source of 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions and cement production 鈥� 11%. The construction movement consumes 36% of the world's energy resources. In 2030, 60% of the population will live in cities. The scientists' findings leave no illusions 鈥� the climate crisis has ceased to be a matter of the future that does not concern us and has begun to be an acute and real problem. Everything leaves its footprint, including the ecological one. What do architects have to do about it? How to take care of architecture that is eco-friendly? How about instead of asking ourselves how we should design, we should consider whether to do it at all? Filip Springer 鈥� the co-founder of the Polska Szko艂a Ekopoetyki [Polish School of Ecopoetics] will present all the doubts, challenges and solutions during his lecture "Czy warto projektowa膰? 艢lad ekologiczny architektury" on 22 March at 11:30 a.m. in room C101 at the Faculty of Economics and Sociology of the 91滴滴.
