Occasionally, we still get questions about whether or not we can ship a label. So on the eve of our 10th-anniversary celebration, we thought we'd kickstart the conversation on mindful MATERIALS' evolution from a label to a non-profit. https://lnkd.in/gcQ4ThjD #mindfulMATERIALS #anniversary #MaterialsEasyButton #CommonMaterialsFramework

"We are thrilled to partner with the International Living Future Institute to accelerate toward a world where extensive, verified #EPD and other sustainability data is digitized and flowing, supporting project-level decisions and scaling the holistic impact reduction of the built environment," says Annie Bevan. With the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) grant funding, #ILFI plans to build on the success of the #Declare program in accelerating the market transformation of climate-friendly products with a new label that will focus on emissions and will include the translation and evaluation of environmental product declarations (#EPDs). Congratulations to #ILFI! Click below to learn more ⤵️
The International Living Future Institute (Living Future) is honored to have been selected to receive $4.7 million over the next five years from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to support our efforts to decarbonize the built environment. We will leverage this investment to build on the success of the Declare program in accelerating the market transformation of climate-friendly products. A new label focused on emissions will include translation and evaluation of environmental product declarations (EPDs) - third-party verified reports of a product’s environmental impacts across its life cycle, such as global warming potential, primary energy use, and ozone depletion potential. This is a crucial step to drive the widespread adoption of EPDs and to motivate manufacturers to continue investing in optimized environmental performance. “We are designing this label program to help accelerate EPD adoption in our industry,” says Lindsay Baker, CEO of Living Future. “We know that distilling data and making it digestible to design teams and owners will empower them and move the market.” Read more on this exciting development in sustainable materials here: https://lnkd.in/gZ7kMUqN US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Mike Johnson Chelsea Duckworth, LFA Lindsay Baker Paul Swensson Hannah Ray Benson Gabler Andrea Cooper, LEED AP CDT #SustainableBuilding, #ClimateAction, #LivingFuture, #EPA, #Decarbonization, #EnvironmentalImpact
