Statements from experts in the field

How can we achieve a carbon neutral building stock? And what can we learn from buildings that are already operated in a carbon neutral manner?

Panel discussion on the topic of "Climate positive buildings"

At Expo Real 2019, a panel discussion on the topic of "Climate Positive Buildings" took place at stand A2.334. Our colleague Dr. Anna Braune spoke with Ursula Sowa from BÜNDNIS 90/DIE GRÜNEN, Prof. Dr. Michael Bauer from Drees & Sommer, Dr. Barbara Boczek from the Wissenschaftsstadt (i.e.: City of Science) Darmstadt and Hagen Knaupp from LaSalle Investment Management.

Examples of climate positivity

At the Expo Real 2019, the first ever buildings were honoured with the DGNB "Climate Positive" award for their positive contribution to climate protection. What makes these buildings stand out? And can we achieve a carbon neutral building stock by 2050? We asked the people involved in the projects these and other questions.
