Jacob Deva Racusin - New Frameworks

Jacob Deva Racusin is the lead researcher at Builders for Climate Action and the co-founder of New Frameworks. Jacob comfortably bridges the gap between seemingly (though not, in fact) disparate worlds, valuing both the intuitive comfort of building with the natural materials our ancestors have used for millennia and the cutting edge of building and climate science.

In this episode, we discuss communication, empathy, straw, carbon emission calculations, and how knowledge sharing between large- and small-scale projects is a two-way street.
