This is evident in many ways across many different industries, and there is arguably no better example of how this is being realized by Autodesk, our partners, and our customers than what we\u2019re sharing this week at our <a href=\"https:\/\/greenbuildexpo.com\/Attendee\/Home\">Greenbuild International Conference and Expo 2016<\/a> booth [Booth #L2349], October 5-7 in Los Angeles. So, how does this impact your work today? <strong> Make the Built Environment Better<\/strong> With the recent news of the US and China ratifying the <a href=\"https:\/\/unfccc.int\/resource\/docs\/2015\/cop21\/eng\/l09r01.pdf\">COP21 Paris Climate Agreement<\/a> the world\u2019s attention is once again focused on the critical need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.\u00a0 You\u2019ve probably heard this before but according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, today over 30 percent of global greenhouse emissions are building related and those emissions are\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/report\/ar5\/\">predicted to double by 2050<\/a>\u00a0if we follow a business-as-usual path. If you consider solely electricity,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.unep.org\/sbci\/AboutSBCI\/Background.asp\">more than 60 percent<\/a> (and as much\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/architecture2030.org\/buildings_problem_why\/\">as 74 percent<\/a>\u00a0here in the U.S.) is buildings related. Now with the signing of the COP21 Paris Climate Agreement, 195 countries have committed to reducing global greenhouse gases by more than twice the amount currently emitted by buildings. The buildings sector offers some of the greatest potential for rapid and economically beneficial change, and a means by which countries can comply with their Paris commitments cost-effectively. In a seminal piece of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/client_service\/electric_power_and_natural_gas\/latest_thinking\/unlocking_energy_efficiency_in_the_us_economy\">analysis by McKinsey &amp; Company in 2009<\/a>, it was revealed that if existing efficiency improvements with positive ROIs were deployed today, we\u2019d reduce US commercial building energy use by a whopping 29% by 2020. <strong> Integrated Generative Intelligence<\/strong> It is one thing to cite problems and set goals, but what about the \u201chow to\u201d part of the equation? To begin with, we can look to Integrated Design &#8211; getting the whole project team to look at whole system performance for the whole building life. Next, Generative Design \u2013 Setting clear measurable goals and evaluating problems to uncover higher performing solutions that would otherwise not have been considered in traditional design processes. This might all sound idealistic, however what is very real are the significant advances that have been made towards the next generation of Building Information Modeling, Energy &amp; Environmental Performance Simulation, and Economic Analysis tools that can easily scale to provide greater intelligence for the whole industry.
