ISCN Charter: Foster sustainable construction, renovation, and campus operation How can the latest sustainable building guidelines best be adapted to and implemented in university and corporate campus settings? How can ongoing operations on campus be optimized for sustainability? Foster sustainable master planning and development, mobility and community integration How can master planning for sustainability optimally structure the interfaces between buildings and users, different buildings on campus, and campus and the surrounding communities? Foster the practice of linking facilities, research, and education for sustainable development How to best create “buildings that teach” in relation to sustainable development by demonstrating and inspiring cutting edge research on environmental and social issues? How can research and education transcend disciplinary boundaries, a requisite for socially salient solutions?

ISCN App project (2010)

CAMPUS BORONGAJ - GREEN CAMPUS (2008)

• Use of renewable energy sources

- Biomass energy

- Geothermal energy

- Solar energy

• Within campus only zero CO2 vehicles

• Treatment of all waste water

• Buildings CO2- (minus)

• Campus = City Innovation park – Extensive green areas (ISCN guidelines)

• Living laboratory on the use of renewable energy sources, technologies

• Promotion of green lifestyle

JEREMY RIFKIN: THE THIRD INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION (2011)

• Five pillars:

- Shifting to renewable energy

- Transforming the building stock into micro power plants

- Storage technologies in every building

- Using Internet technologies to transform the power grid

- Transitioning the transport fleet to plug-in and fuel cell vehicles

Why not try using wood?

Ecological reasons

renewable material, recyclable material, CO2 container, aesthetic reasons

Economic and social reasons

domestic material, existing industry and know-how, generated wealth stays in the country
