Webinar: Navigating Environmental Product Data: A Guide, May 14
Event Description

The materials and products landscape architects specify significantly impact a project’s global warming potential, biodiversity, and air and water quality. This webinar will show you how to interpret environmental product declarations (EDPs) and how EPDs relate to other types of environmental product data. With the right data, product specifiers can assess a product's environmental impacts, make informed decisions, and align with ASLA Climate Action Plan goals.

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the course participants will be able to:

  1. Understand the role of EPDs and environmental reporting in evaluating the sustainability of landscape materials and products.
  2. Learn how to interpret and apply environmental data to reduce project emissions and environmental impact.
  3. Explore strategies for integrating sustainable material selection into landscape architecture practice to meet climate action targets.
