IMEG has submitted the firm’s Embodied Carbon Action Plan (ECAP) to the Structural Engineers 2050 Commitment Program. The ECAP is a critical part of the firm’s pledge to support the Commitment and establishes the initial strategies for reducing the embodied carbon of IMEG’s<\/span>\u00a0structural projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

The SE<\/span> 2050 Commitment was<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>created in response to and support of the\u00a0<\/span>SE\u00a0<\/span>2050 Challenge, which calls on <\/span>all structural engineers\u00a0<\/span>to<\/span> understand, reduce, and ultimately eliminate embodied carbon in their projects. IMEG joined the Commitment in April.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to share our ECAP with SE 2050 and with IMEG’s structural engineers, who will begin to put these actions into play,\u201d said Laura H<\/span>agan, chair of IMEG\u2019s Structural Sustainabil<\/span>i<\/span>ty Task Force.\u00a0<\/span>\u201cBy educating our structural engineers in sustainable design and construction\u00a0<\/span>best practices,<\/span>\u00a0tracking and reporting em<\/span>b<\/span>odied carbon data<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0and developing reduction targets, we will do our part\u00a0<\/span>to support the SE\u00a0<\/span>2050 Challenge.\u201d <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

IMEG<\/span>\u2019s c<\/span>ommitment\u00a0<\/span>to the program is the latest in the firm\u2019s longstanding commitment to\u00a0<\/span>sustainability<\/span>\u00a0and the environment<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u2013 both in t<\/span>erms of\u00a0<\/span>providing clients with\u00a0<\/span>energy-efficient, resource-saving\u00a0<\/span>design solutions\u00a0<\/span>a<\/span>nd<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>reducing the environmental impact of its own offices through a\u00a0<\/span>firmwide sustainability policy<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/span>SE 2050 C<\/span>hallenge was developed by the Carbon Leadership Forum (CLF) and the SE 2050 Commitment Program developed by the Sustainability Committee of the Structural Engineering Institute (SEI) of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE).<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
