USGBC Building Transformation Forum: Resilience for a Rapidly Changing Climate in Maryland

This dynamic forum will feature important discussions on Resilience Hubs and Building Energy Performance Standards (BEPS)—two powerful tools for strengthening communities in the face of climate change. We’ll explore how cities can adapt to extreme weather events, reduce emissions, and ensure equitable access to safe, energy-efficient spaces. Learn how resilience hubs can serve as community anchors during emergencies and how BEPS policies drive sustainable building practices that benefit everyone. This event brings together local leaders, green building & sustainability professionals, and advocates to chart a path toward a thriving, climate-resilient future.  

Maryland’s cities, including Baltimore, stand as critical case studies in resilience. By examining their unique experiences, we can draw valuable insights into effective strategies for urban planning and disaster preparedness. Baltimore, with its rich history and diverse communities, offers lessons in addressing environmental challenges while fostering social equity and economic stability.
