Being the public face of Architecture 2030, most architects know who Ed Mazria is. Many architects, like myself, have probably seen him speak, which he has done regularly in the United States and abroad, educating architects about Architecture 2030 and its efforts to decarbonize the built environment and convincing them to take positive steps toward designing carbon-neutral buildings. Many of Architecture 2030's initiatives have been adopted by professional bodies, most notably the 2030 Challenge, which was created in 2006, adopted by the American Institute of Architects, and led the AIA to form the 2030 Commitment.

And how did he become an architect in the first place? This short film has answers to these and other questions you may have about being Ed Mazria:
