Harnessing Smart Technologies
"Let's enable buildings to become like a neural network where all the operating systems talk to each other."
"Buildings are full of potential to make people happier and healthier."
Buildings are the cornerstones of civilisation – but they come at massive environmental cost. What if they could cut carbon, restore ecosystems, increase human health and help the bottom line?
Since buildings are currently responsible for almost 40% of global greenhouse gas emissions, creating net positive buildings represents a huge opportunity to reduce our environmental impact.
As Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer at Johnson Controls, Katie McGinty works to transform buildings from burdens into assets. Smart, integrated systems can deliver positive outcomes for people, the planet, and even business balance sheets.
