</script>https://carbonleadershipforum.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/sellen-fi.png847847Pushing the Boundaries, Leaving a Legacy by Erin Kirkpatrick and Angi Rivera Sellen first targeted embodied carbon in 2013 on the Helen Sommers Building, a design-build project with ZGF Architects for the State of Washington. The 234,000-square-foot, five-story office building included significant sustainability achievements, including a 71% reduction in greenhouse gases (GHG) from building operations. In addition, the design-build team focused on minimizing the embodied carbon in concrete by requiring Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for almost all mixes. Sellen proposed creating new EPDs for the project's concrete mixes to measure the team's efforts to reduce embodied GHG impacts when compared to baseline, business-as-usual concrete mixes.
