    This is really valuable distillation and analysis about policy for the building sector. Bravo, Lindsay Baker, and thank you.

    Lindsay Baker asks: Would the new Climate Action Plans transform the #buildings and #realestate sectors? Find out in my new #climatepolicy piece, breaking down the three major plans (Biden, House and Evergreen Action) SPECIFIC TO BUILDINGS. And thanks to those who helped me learn for this piece- Sara Neff, David Heinzerling, PE, Kevin Powell, and Leah Stokes via her new book.
