From wildfires and droughts to hurricanes and floods, most climate scientists (97 percent) agree that the human emission of heat-trapping gases is the main reason for a warming planet and severe weather changes. Join a discussion with Tom Di Liberto, a climatologist with NOAA’s Climate Program Office’s Communication team, to look at weather patterns and changing climate zones, and what scientific models predict from now until 2100. The informational webinar titled “Future Weather Files” is Tuesday, Sept. 15, at 2 p.m. EDT.
The National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) is offering a series of three informative and educational webinars examining future weather patterns, ways climate change affects the built environment, and innovations in solar glass. These sustainability sessions are offered this month leading up to the Fall Virtual Membership Meeting in October. This series features experts working with the NOAA, George Mason University, and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
Attendees can earn American Institute of Architects (AIA) and U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) continuing education credits for these sessions. Learn more about the sustainability sessions and register here.
