Climate explores and defines the roles of architecture, design, and technology in meeting the challenges facing our communities from current and forecasted changes in climate. Climate change continues to be a major problem facing our communities worldwide. In what way does climate change affect our understanding of the role of architecture and technology within our communities? How can we better define the role of architecture and technology in addressing climate change? How can we prepare for a future with more extreme climate conditions and the associated socioeconomic and political problems? Can architecture take a leadership role in transforming the built environment from part of the problem to part of the solution? How can we change the current value system that rewards aesthetics over performance and environmental impact? Is architectural education providing future architects with the values, knowledge, and skillsets needed to tackle climate change effectively?
