Carol Phillips, MTA Partner and Sustainability Expert, was interviewed for the Podcast Series “Canadian Forestry Can Save the World”, a program by The Forest Products Association of Canada and Forestry for the Future. Carol, who is Partner-in-Charge on two of the firm’s most innovative and sustainability-focused building projects, Limberlost Place at George Brown College (JV with Acton Ostry Architects) and the new Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation Headquarters, is featured in Episode 6 of Season 2, entitled “Mass Timber at Mass Scale”.
When speaking on the management of mass timber products and building components, Carol states:
“I think that the interesting balance is to start shifting the conversation to a performance-based solution in design – both on the regulatory targets for the environment and on the building code performance.”
