Decarbonization in the Built Environment and Funding Opportunities through the Inflation Reduction Act

Join us for this lunchtime webinar held in collaboration with the Gazarian Real Estate Center. Attendees will get an understanding of decarbonization in the built environment, what goals the Inflation Reduction Act has for decarbonization and what funding is available for decarbonization in the residential and commercial real estate sector.
