Earth Day 2023:
\nMitigation, Adaptation… Celebration<\/h1>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Throughout our more than 60 years of experience, SWA has continually sought ways to protect and enhance our shared world. While Earth Day holds special significance for us, our practice every day of the year revolves around shared principles.<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”39524″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text]On Earth Day and every day, SWA is combating the impacts of climate change.\u00a0 To address issues ranging from flooding to wildfire, we\u2019re enhancing efficiencies between buildings and landscapes to conserve natural resources; orchestrating land uses that optimize open spaces to make high-density environments more livable; restoring green environments and preserving open spaces that can provide social amenities; and conserving natural open space and habitat for generations to come.<\/p>\n

Our industry carries the responsibility of researching and learning from the ecology, traditions, and materials of a site and its surroundings, and combining them in ways that extend use and life. This applies especially to the overlap of the human-made and the natural. We view \u201cclimate infrastructure\u201d as an essential means by which communities can preserve and cherish the Earth. In 2023, we embarked on an endeavor to synthesize and systematize mitigation and adaptation strategies into a \u201ckit of parts\u201d based on solid research and emerging best practices. It\u2019s our hope that these strategies, developed through the lens of \u201cclimate infrastructure,\u201d will help not only our own designers, but our clients and project partners to shrink the carbon footprint of the built environment and adapt to the effects of climate change.<\/p>\n

We wish you a healthy and happy Earth Day![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"featured_media":39459,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nEarth Day
