SUMMARY:Greentown Labs' Circular Economy in the Buildings Sector
DESCRIPTION:Join Greentown Labs to celebrate the kickoff of Go Build 2023\, a Greentown Go startup-corporate partnerships accelerator program focused on advancing circularity and decarbonization in the built environment\, in partnership with Saint-Gobain. \nAt this event\, attendees will hear lightning pitches from startup finalists in the buildings industry with innovations that extend product life cycles\, further develop raw materials\, revalorize waste\, or act as other enabling technologies. \nInnovation in the buildings sector is critical to achieving decarbonization. Buildings are responsible for 39 percent of CO2 emissions globally\, with a staggering 11 percent of global emissions coming from the construction of buildings and manufacturing of building materials. To change this\, we need innovations that reinvent how buildings and their materials are planned\, built\, sourced\, and managed.

SUMMARY:C3E's Building the Energy-Gender-Climate Nexus Webinar: The Role of Decentralized Renewable Energy Access
DESCRIPTION:Energy poverty\, gender inequality\, and climate change are three of the gravest threats that face people and planet alike. Decentralized renewable energy access is precisely the kind of solution that will deliver a Just Energy Transition and bring power to the people in the Global South as well as communities in the Global North. Yet\, big energy and infrastructure are dominating the Energy Transition agenda. With a focus on rapidly reducing carbon emissions\, large-scale renewable systems—many centrally controlled—are being prioritized\, leaving hundreds of millions of people—especially women—in rural and marginalized communities without access to energy\, increasing their climate vulnerability. Join four C3E Award winners to hear their experience in accelerating energy access in the Global South\, followed by a discussion on how delivering energy access through decentralized renewable energy enables climate\, gender\, and development benefits and upcoming opportunities for further innovation and scale in Africa\, Asia\, and the United States. There will be an optional 30-minute discussion and networking session immediately following the webinar at 3:00pm ET.
