Portland, ME – Harriman, a full-service architecture and engineering design firm with offices in Portland and Auburn, Maine and Manchester, N.H.recently signed both the Architecture 2030 Challenge and the AIA 2030 Commitment, pledging its commitment to a sustainable built environment.
The Architecture 2030 Challenge is an initiative aimed at reducing the emission of greenhouse gases by changing the way buildings are designed and constructed.
The AIA 2030 Commitment is a challenge set forth by the American Institute of Architects to its member firms to take a leadership role in reducing the energy consumption and green house gas creation in the buildings that are designed and operated. The Commitment has a clear long-term goal: by 2030, it will be standard practice to design and construct climate neutral buildings — buildings that do not use greenhouse gas emitting energy to operate. The goal is to reduce energy consumption across each firm’s entire portfolio, not just for projects seeking green building certification.
