This project communicates interactive cross-sectoral data about how municipal planning policies related to urban form may address both climate action and urban livability. The research generates numerous measured future what-if scenarios for neighbourhood-scale changes to population, population density, built form, building energy, mobility, urban greening. This project addresses a problem of communication by designing and […]

According to a recent report, when it comes to animal protection laws Canada has not been performing adequately, receiving a grade of “D” on the Animal Protection Index (API). The low marks received were for not having adequate legislation protecting wildlife in captivity, working animals, farm animals, animals used in research and companion animals. At […]

The EFMP is an environmental management platform. At its basic level it monitoring the environmental conditions over time and over the entire footprint of a project. The footprint of a development does not end at the boundary fence – the area that the development effects on a regular basis. The environmental information comes from Earth […]
