A regenerative building is the one that reduces its energy consumption AND generate its own energy with solar cells.]]> 2022-03-18 04:52:53 UTC https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2101340614 alessiarez3 https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124346447 Centre of Interactive Research on Sustainability (CIRS) Living Lab on University of British Columbia.

CIRS was designed to target net-positive outcomes in four resources metrics: energy (through renewables and synergistic use of waste heat from a neighbouring building), operational carbon (carbon emitted through operating the building), structural carbon (more carbon sequestered in its structure than the total carbon emitted through construction, decommissioning, and embodied in all the equipment within the building), and water (through rainwater harvesting, storage, and onsite treatment). ]]> 2022-03-31 20:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124346447 alessiarez3 https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124348761 Net-positive idea recognises the aim of reducing negative environmental impacts and the aim of enhancing the positive impacts of the individual and collective activity; environmentally, socially and economically.]]> 2022-03-31 21:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124348761 alessiarez3 https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124408437 2022-03-31 22:14:09 UTC https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124408437 alessiarez3 https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124415768 Analyze the social impact of a regenerative building.
*How the interaction of CIRS and its inhabitants produces a pro-environmental behaviour? ]]> 2022-03-31 22:21:40 UTC https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124415768 alessiarez3 https://padlet.com/alessiarez3/m2dtrdu00ojziqi7/wish/2124453350 Coleman made 55 surveys and 26 interviews to different inhabitants of CIRS.
The aim of the surveys and interviews was collect information about the different levels of satisfaction:
*Life, job/degree, relationships in work place
*Health: symptoms at office. Is CIRS influencing health?
*Productivity
*Travel time to CRS
*Expectations met
