Cooling Our Environment

Join COTE and author and architect Kalpana Sutaria for a discussion of her new book, Cooling Our Environment: An Architect’s Vision for Combating Global Warming. Says Kalpana: “The purpose of my book is to address the monumental climate crisis as it relates to professionals in the building industry – those who plan, design and construct buildings, communities, and infrastructure projects – and climate advocates who are concerned about preservation of our environment.”
