Climate Conversations - Tridel's Environmental Policies (Episode 8)

Climate Conversations is a podcast produced by a collective of youth involved with the Focus Media Arts Centre’ Radio Regent. In the newest episode, hosts Jabin Haque, Jamelia Parnell, and Siyan Balasundaram speak with Graeme Armster, Director innovation and Sustain, Tridel Builders.

With the Regent Park Revitalization in its final development, Phases 4 and 5, the question of how and what is being implemented to both mitigate the environmental footprint of the construction and to ensure that the new buildings will have the necessary structural elements to meet Canadian environmental conditions, is certainly ever present in the minds of area residents. And given the scope of the revitalization, its significance on global level, Regent Park is being promoted through the United Nations Urban Economy Forum, as a high water mark in urban sustainability, Regent Park youth from the Climate Conversations radio show, are by all means interested in how these changes will be implemented in the new construction.

For Tridel Builders, Graeme says: that in Phases 4 and 5, their goal will be informed by a multi-level set of engagements made-up of operational and embodied carbon mitigation, combined with passive house standards, and the inclusion Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions protocols, which all work toward delivering on Tridel's 2023 goal of zero emissions for all new buildings. Reducing the environmental impact and ensuring the climate resilience of their projects is the aim of Tridel Builders.
