New Embodied Carbon Law in Canada

The Canadian Standard on Embodied Carbon in Construction is a crucial legislation that provides a comprehensive framework for addressing carbon emissions in construction projects. It mandates stakeholders to measure, disclose, and mitigate embodied carbon throughout the project lifecycle. Compliance with this standard demonstrates a commitment to environmental stewardship and supports Canada’s sustainability goals. By promoting the use of low-carbon materials and efficient building techniques, it fosters a transition towards a more sustainable built environment.
