  • The number of buildings in the world

  • is going to double by 2060.

  • It's like we're going to build a new New York City

  • every month for the next 40 years.

  • Steel, cement, wood, all emitting greenhouse gases.

  • We're going to have to figure out

  • how to make all these things in a different way.

  • a lot of innovation,

  • to bring the emissions

  • from all those areas down to zero.
