QUINN EVANS ARCHITECTS has formally signed on to the American Institute of Architects’ 2030 commitment program. As part of this pledge, firm will develop an action plan and implement steps to advance the goal of carbon neutral buildings by the year 2030. The program is a voluntary commitment for AIA member firms which asks organizations to make a pledge, develop multi-year action plans and implement steps towards attaining the organization's carbon-neutral goal.
According to firm Principal Michael Quinn, FAIA, “As architects, we understand the need to exercise leadership in our role in creating the built environment. Consequently, we believe we must alter our profession’s actions and encourage our clients and the entire design and construction industry to join with us to change the course of the planet’s future.”
