2017 #wearestillin <br />We are part of a sweeping <br />national coalition of <br />communities, cities, states, <br />NGOs, universities, and <br />corporations that are working <br />together to drive climate action <br />in the United States. These <br />intrepid, progressive entities <br />have committed to accelerating <br />the rate of emissions reduction <br />in the U.S. to the point where we <br />meet our contributions under <br />the Paris Agreement. This is why <br />we are signatories of the Low <br />Carbon USA pact and We Are <br />Still In, and why Perkins&Will has <br />also signed the AIA Committee <br />on the Environment’s recent <br />letters to the U.S. Secretary of <br />Energy and to the Administrator <br />of the U.S. EPA, both of which <br />Perkins&Will helped to draft. <br />Resilience Lab Goals <br />• Strengthen building, <br />infrastructure, organization <br />and community resistance to <br />chronic stressors arising from <br />a changing climate and <br />resource depletion <br />• Improve safety and stability <br />during acute shocks from <br />both manmade events and <br />natural phenomena <br />• Reduce physical risks posed <br />by extreme weather events <br />to communities <br />• Reduce risk premiums <br />associated with operations, <br />insurance and financing <br />• Maintain continuity of <br />business and community <br />activities during chronic and <br />acute events <br /> <br />1.
