Housing and Transportation: What’s the Climate Connection?
A panel discussion on the climate impact of housing & transportation, and how to design low carbon, highly livable cities.
By Citizens’ Climate Lobby & City of Ann Arbor Office of Sustainability and Innovation
Housing and transportation together account for 42% of our carbon emissions. To minimize climate change, we need to make our buildings more efficient, utilize building footprints more efficiently, and create housing options that allow us to dramatically reduce vehicle miles traveled. What impact do transportation and housing choices have on carbon emissions, affordability, and livability? Join us for a panel discussion led by housing and transportation experts:
Jan Culbertson (Senior Principal Emeritus, A3C and Leadership Council Chair, Ann Arbor 2030 District)
Reid Ewing (Distinguished Professor of City & Metropolitan Planning, University of Utah)
Christopher Laurent (President, Cinnaire Solutions)
Jonathan Levine (Professor of Urban and Regional Planning, University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning)
