Our world is grappling with complex challenges, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and socioeconomic inequality. Those who plan, design, and engineer our communities and ecosystems play a pivotal role in shaping solutions that promote future resilience.
This webinar explores tangible approaches to addressing these crises, including the use of Pathfinder 3.0—a free online tool for measuring the performance of sites and infrastructure. The session provides tools and guidance for integrating ecological, social, and economic benefits into projects while contributing to global efforts to combat climate and biodiversity challenges.
This webinar is designed as a demonstration of the Pathfinder tool - therefore this course is ineligible for continuing education approval through the Landscape Architecture Continuing Education System (LA CES).
