Designing a Carbon-Positive Future: Part 2 | SmithGroup

This post builds on the first in the series, providing implemented examples of how interior design projects can play a significant role in reducing embodied carbon: the greenhouse gas emissions resulting from building material manufacturing, transportation, installation, maintenance and disposal over a building’s lifetime.

While we have made gradual progress in every sector, we are still faced with an urgent climate emergency and a pressing need to accelerate our decarbonization efforts before the extreme environmental impacts become irreversible.

#NYTCrossword Word of the Day: Sego
“Calochortus nuttallii, also known as the sego lily, is a bulbous perennial plant that is endemic to the Western United States. It is the state flower of Utah.” Shoshone taught Mormons how to prepare the bulbs for badly needed food.

Look, companies that are having a hard time finding staff need to realize that in this economy, looking for workers is a full-time job. You can't just post an ad on Indeed and call it quits. You've got to be out there all day everyday working the phones, working your network. Make an impression by sending thank you notes to candidates who grant you an interview. And always remember: if you keep at it every day and never give up, you will eventually find a worker. You can do it!
