Build Reuse 2024: Salvaging the Past. Building a Low Carbon Future, February 12-14
Event Description

Build Reuse is proud to once again present annual conference in person!

The only North American conference focused explicitly on reuse in the built environment, will host people from around the world to discuss the current economic, social, and environmental impacts of the building material reuse industry. 

Decon + Reuse ‘24 will focus conversations around the theme

Salvaging the Past. Building a Low Carbon Future. With the building materials and construction sector contributing 11% of global greenhouse (GHG) emissions, how can deconstruction and building materials reuse lead to a low carbon future?

How do we best salvage not only the building materials from our past, but the stories, our sense of place, our community connections that are embodied within them?

How does the past help us to build a low carbon future?

These are just some of the questions that face government, nonprofits, business leaders, designers, researchers, students and communities as they consider the carbon emissions released during building materials extraction, manufacturing, transport, construction and disposal.
