When it comes to sustainability and architecture, there are few on the planet that are more progressive-minded and informed than Eric Corey Freed. We can also now say with certainty that there are none more witty and entertaining.

Eric Corey Freed is the Senior Vice President of Sustainability at Cannon Design, where he is leading them on a mission to have every project be net-zero energy and halve embodied carbon by 2030.  He’s authored a dozen books on the topic of sustainability— his most recent:  The Circular Economy for Dummies.

In this episode, he discusses the future of green building, bio-engineering, designing for the human senses, and how we can get others to take climate change more seriously.

There are some amazing moments in this conversation.  There are countless laughs.  We can promise that you’ll enjoy Eric’s style and you’ll be imagining a whole new world of architecture like you’ve never imagined before.
